Fwd: KUDOS for a Most Excellent Day

[Casey Creamer]

You know the old adage, never put anything in an email that you don't want the whole world to see.

So I am forwarding this to the group without permission because it was so well written. 

And because it was written by one who definitely knows how to keep up with the car ahead of him.

Thanks,

Casey

Casey,
ABSOLUTELY AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!   I don’t know how else to describe it. My wife and I have been doing this for 13 years (we live in Breesport, just outside of Horseheads) and this one was perhaps the sweetest one so far. Glenora Run (Route A, created by Terrie Sauter) was awesome. The sponsorship of our run by Glenora Wine Cellars and Welliver is awesome. They are a class act, from breakfast buffet to a parade lap at the Schuyler Hospital to lunch at Hidden Valley! The coordination between city, village, county and state is incredible. The fact that they have the guts to shut down Franklin Street and surrounding territory is to be highly commended. The crowd was huge, respectful, responsive and encouraging. I talked to a man who comes down from Montreal, who had left there at 5 am. He brings his whole family, including his Dad who raced in the 60’s) and they were camping at the track, they’d started coming 10 years ago, and he said, “Do you realize, this is the only thing like it on the east coast?”. Yeah! The only thing like it on the east coast and it’s happening in Watkins Glen.

So, thank you Casey and all the workers. Words simply fall short of trying to express my gratitude and thanks for being able to participate in a very, very special event.
Thank you to all the elected and non-elected officials, the police, sheriffs, troopers, first responders, EMT’s and hundreds of volunteers who put on such a unique event. And thanks to WGI, the SVRA, the drivers, teams and cars that really put the cherry on top!!!

Sincerely,

Although I did not make this years event and my Austin Mini Moke was sad-this Mail sums up what everyone has always felt about this event. My goal for next year is to attend and park at the bank if I am picked but to also rent a limo RV and bring all my workers and their significant others 3+ hours to form their own opinions of the event as to me it is an eye opener. I travel extensively and basically hate that part of my job but can add that everyone needs to visit NYC, Vegas and New Orleans and the Grand Prix Festival to form their own opinions. Casey and the crew have done such a job that I am looking to move there! 

No matter the honored manufacturer-the event crosses over to all and discriminates against none. My goal is to never miss another and put Casey as a write in for President this year-Gurney and Pat Paulsen did it so let's give a guy with the tools to do it the chance! 

Hats off the everyone that makes this event happen year after year no matter the obstacles so we can all enjoy motoring no matter what our brand or angle. 

Casey man you rock!

We also were part of the Glenora run. Fantastic job! Excellent food and the hospitality by all there could not be better. Thanks to all that work so hard making this event so special every year. Your dedication and hard work are evident and so appreciated. Also a special thanks to all the people who live in the area. I'm sure the closed roads and extra traffic are a pain and you are all appreciated for putting up with it. Can't wait for next year!

Always a blast keeping up with the car in front!

I want to add on to the esteem and awe I feel for the organizers of this event.  Each year they tweak and adapt to conditions and manage to not just maintain the high quality experience for the participants, but actually improve it - specifically the wait time between the staging and the start of the laps.  It went incredibly quickly for me this year, and I appreciated it as my car was inclined to overheat when stopped, and vapor lock when hot.  Kudos for that.  No doubt Casey’s group was a bit miffed by the pace of an older Daimler, but the track opened up when they were waved off, and as the first car behind them, I never had a better time trying to keep up with the car in front.  Of course first I had to find them, and my supercharged B had a pretty wild sprint up the hill until I found them at the stone bridge.  Great Fun…. but again, great appreciation to the organizers and volunteers coordinating all this and making it happen each year.  Well done.
