Shane-TRG

Howdy HWFMers - Shane from TRG here. Just wanted to take a second to tell you how much fun we've had with the whole project this week - it's come together very quickly, and TRG is honored to have a part in it.

We got some great looks for having the turtle on the car... along with the T.W.A.T.S. spectating the race (seriously, it's a British drinking/motorsports spectating team), there's a lot of great humor.

And I'll have you know that the turtle strategy works at Le Mans too - we started the race 42nd of 48, and we're up to 31st overall currently.

So let's hope that the turtle helps us beat the hare(s)

Here's to you guys - thanks so much!

And by the way, Bob C. here, our team photog and himself a longtime Rennlister, wants me to tell everyone that we're up to 29th overall.

Good thing we didn't have our sticker on Belmondo's car. Such a potty mouth. He should be glad the Mother Superior isn't there.

Any problems with the car?

Our TRG car was just shown in a routine pit stop. They said 28th overall, 11th in class. Turtle is looking good.

Awww - HWFMR doesn't get any plugs in the sponsor profiles within the updates. =[

Mother Superior would have beat his butt till it was raw for saying that in an interview, if I can say so myself!!! Thinking it is one thing, but saying it???

We are all just hanging around here watching the race, cheering the TRG Turtle on and working on our 'turtle'. This is going to be one long party night!

SHANE.... Thanks to TRG letting us be a part of it. Reminds me of old times. Actually makes me kinda sad, 'cause I really miss being on a 'real' team...

poorb0yw - thanks to you, the official TRG releases (400+ members of the media) now contain information about our sponsor HWFMR.

Thanks for the reminder.
