While I was vending at Fast times at Farmington, I heard the announcer say something about Mike Harris in such and such lane. Huh? I looked up and saw him and his beautiful newly finished baby blue RHD bug going down the track! Couldn't beleive my eyes! Way to be Mike!
I had to leave for home about 5pm, so I didn't get to sit and enjoy any racing. Please tell us about it. _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam

Clyde, you shouldn't be drinking before driving home form the show.
Mike was home this weekend working on a plumbing problem.
Maybe he has been cloned.........NOOOOOOO! _________________ 73 Typ481

Well I swear they announced Mike Harris, and when I looked, there was a bug that resembled his, from way across the field. I thought it'd be a year or two before he took it down the track..... Guess I was right. _________________ '69 Bug, 1776, dual kadrons, Web 111 cam

Looks like my tune up was worth a damn after all... That thing would barely run when it first rolled onto my dyno. _________________ Jake Raby

Jake it still won't run. (well it does limp in and out of the trailer) Mike wasn't at Farmington and his engine is back firing and poping. He has jet doctors he is going to install to fix the problem. (he hopes) _________________ 73 Typ481
