    Wishing all the best for the SBD. Love the pic especially the two dads running along side the racer. So Decatur.

      what if a screw falls out of one of the cars and someone drives over it and punctures a tire?
      what if one of those fathers trips and falls and ends up on long-term disability at tax payers’ expense?
      are those children licensed to drive on a public thoroughfare?
      did those cars satisfy crash impact regulations?
      oh, the inhumanity!
