You might send a note to the office at the track with a stamped envelope with your info on it and ask Arletta if she would look up his name and address in that seat and send it to him for you. Don't know why they wouldn't. It would be worth a try.
My wife told me if I went to one more Sprint Car race
she would leave me.................I'm sure gonna miss
that ol' gal.

Hi Big Ben, I can't help you with who you are looking for, but I know who you are talking about. I was sitting right behind you too, three people to the left of the guy you are looking for. We have both been going to the Nationals for about 20 years, but don't really know each other too well. Up until this year, my tickets were where your group was sitting, but I forgot to renew my tickets last year. You bought my old tickets, but I was able to get a pair of tickets one row up right behind where you guys were sitting. I read on an earlier post that you guys got back safe and had a great time here in the states. Glad to hear that.

Big Ben, maybe you can help me, kind of a reverse thing here.
Over the last decade or so I befriended an Englishmen who used to come over to Florida in the winter and the Nationals in the summer, almost every year. He eventually picked up a camera and I spent time helping him the next few times I saw him. I then retired and moved back to Canada and wondered if he was still doing this and how I might be able to get a hold of him. He was somewhat vertically challenged, very pleasant and always smiling, man he loved sprint car racing and would drive all night to get to the next race, often. Any clue? Thanks in advance, Take It Easy....

This should help you find Colin. I find myself with an interest in the UK and US scenes as I moved to California from the UK last January. Hope it helps.

Just like most people believe your 'nick' is somewhat related to your vertical prowess when in fact it's that half a friggin finger ya' got, sheesh! Miss ya' old friend, someday I'm tellin' the story of the only night I spent at your place and we went for A drink before we hit the hay and then you explaining/demanding that it was A drink from every bottle on that goll darn shelf, OUCH! What a night, Take It Easy...
