Thank you for this, Frank!

For those of you who are not familiar with the situation, it's Abtech's decades-long relationship with the owners of the track that allows us even the possibility of this access, and he does it for us as his one good deed for the year, as far as I'm able to tell...

And word around the campfire is that certain track-day-organizers have tried to put the kibosh on it.
