Default Re: Carlisle 2009

I was truly honored to receive Gordon's choice. He was supervising Jim and I during the plenum pull. As we were finishing up he placed his celebrity pick sticker on the windshield and said "this is my favorite ZR-1" he then placed his hand on my shoulder and said " that was for your Dad" I can't begin to explain how special his gesture was to me. Dad had gone to Gordon's school and really enjoyed visiting with him and Chris every time he saw them. I was truly moved by Gordon's consideration. especially since this is the first carlisle event since I lost my Dad. As if receiving Gordon's choice wasn't special enough, I was fortunate to have my other brother Darryl in town from Jacksonville Florida for the event to witness Dad's car recieve such a special award. MANY thanks to Gordon and thanks to Jim for joining me for the parade.
