This is video from when we first took off. I took it with my phone, and was trying to hold on with one hand, but it gives you a taste of what it is like to ride in Stillcrazy!

In the video you can sense the excitment-the same excitment of when Still Crazy raced!!! Hopefully you can "feel" why Mike and Dick loved this sport.

Not to mention wrong props, that change alone will add several mph! Jordan an Mike will get her dialed in here quickly!

Mike and Jordan,

You have done a fantastic job on the restoration process of Still Crazy. It looks as good as it did in the early eighties when it sat outside our shop between races, for engine swaps.

As previously noted, Mike and Dick Fullam indeed two of the good guys and they would be very proud of your accomplishments.

I think your crew certainly had the biggest smiles on ALL DAY on Saturday. Glad you joined us.

If you go to my video thread there is a few seconds of you running under the Buckman bridge at the 2:50 mark of the video labeled "2nd group". You got some sweet air crossing our wake right at that moment.
