Allan,

Happy to have you joining us. If you want to see Speedsters you'll get an eyeful at Carlisle this years and the seminars will be interesting too. If you haven't already, check out the Speedster meet web site at SpeedstersEast.home.att.net and watch it for updates plus we will continually add photos and specs on a few of the cars that will be joining us. I'll also add your e-mail address to our update e-mail distribution list. See you at Carlisle!

HTTP://East.SpeedsterOwners.com may be a much easier address for people to remember
