Each of the drivers and the managers received a biography of the person they represented. We got to get a tiny glimpse of wonderful people that lost their lives and feel the loss that everyone has felt every day for the senseless shooting. </p> <p>Television Cameras, photographers, press, but Nick's first thoughts were of the Brian, the person he represented. He started to cry and couldn't really finish the interview when he told them he dedicated his win to Brian Bluhm, the Virginia Tech Student who lost his life along with the other 31victims. I represented Ross A. Alameddine.&nbsp; There were 30 Team members for the Virginia Motorsports Park and two team manager, me&nbsp; and Marie Benfield.&nbsp; We rode and raced in Memory of the 32 Victims that lost their lives. </p> <p>As they paraded the Champions in each age class and brought us to the Winner's Circle, our thoughts were with The Virginia Tech Hokies. We broke the rules...our team had 62 Racers, really 30... and each of us thought about the son, father, mother, daughter, boyfriend, girlfriend, heroes&nbsp;that were with us this weekend.&nbsp; </p> <p>Our Team 1, also won the Team Championship, all ten received a miniature Gold Wally, too and we almost won second place on our Team 3. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <p>Our motto was: We remember !&nbsp; Our shirts said we will never forget any of them.</p>http://www.loopd.com/members/racing2win/blog.aspx?resourceId=a6015572-9232-4ab3-a4e8-e6149e31325aMon, 16 Jul 2007 07:28:19 GMTNick wins 1st Place @ Budds Creek.Really exciting to win this past weekend...I especially loved the new trophy that MIR designed.
