Comments:	Did you ever watch the episode of Star Trek where there was a whole other life form that was sharing space with the crew, but they were moving so fast that the crew couldn't see them, but would once in a while hear a brief buzz as one went by... that's what is is like watching the TQ's at Wall and in particular, watching Mike in the #43! (Alright, yea, I'm a little bit of a Star Trek geek too, but if you are ever at Wall, you gotta watch this guy cut through the field.) This class requires a lot of respect on the part of the competitors to trust each other at the speeds they are traveling and they all have my respect too. On Saturday, Oct 11th, 2004 at WalI, in addition to being a very talented driver, Mike impressed many more by bringing the Richard Petty painted #43 behind the grandstand after his feature and then handed out color picture cards of the car. Mike even let the kids take turns at carefully climbing in and out of the TQ. Super talent and great guy.

08.18.12	Jack Burroughs	I met Mike and his Dad at Pine Brook Speedway, running that T.Q. Midget, but he started there with AMSRA in a Micro-Stock, as far as I can figure he was the first one of them to use Kart Racing size tires. I think they were from the Morristown area. Their cars were always show quality.
