POSTER TIME

It's a cool winter day in the Glen......static outside temp is -1°F. (-18°C.) but it's being pushed around by some wind that's yielding a wind chill of -19°F. (-28°C.). On the plus side....there's no mosquitoes.

All in all, it's a good day to sit inside and mess around making posters of race cars. It isn't Flower Friday material....but then it's only Thursday, so who cares?

I've met the owner/creator of the Echidna at Road America many times. Being a biologist I wondered why this beauty was named after an obscure Australian marsupial, especially since it was born in Minnesota, U.S.A.  So I asked........he replied that his wife thought it looked like an echidna and, thusly, it was named. Clearly, the Mrs. is neither an Australian nor a biologist as this car looks NOTHING like an echidna.  That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
