                    All,
                    I have been sitting back, just taking all this in and said let everybody speak. God knows I’m all over this forum. After reading June’s letter and a few others I once again realized something. Dover was more than a little dragstrip, it was and STILL IS all about family and friends. The connections made then and now will last a lifetime. I wonder how many of the mega dragstrips can say that?? Letters like the ones on this thread will only motivate Dino and myself to work harder and to keep it the way it is, NEVER going beyond what Dover was about. The suggestions/ideas so far are REAL great. Keep up the brainstorming, folks!!
