Thanks to a VERY GENEROUS offer from Udo & Karin Becker, I will be racing one of their beautiful cars at EBI2. I am so overwhelmed, and can't believe how forunate I have been this year.
Steve & Adele Woodbridge are flying me over to England, and then Mike, Steve Dalton & I will be taking the ferry with all of them over to go to Belgium.
Then Udo & Karin offer me a car to drive - it is a bit overwhelming, but so appreciated. I am a lucky girl - for sure!
See You All Soon!
Susy Herbert

Ron,
According to Adele - I believe there are 9-10 ladies racing in the PowderPuff class. Karin is racing her car, and I am racing Paula (her other car), and maybe they are bringing another girl to race with them from Germany. I know Adele is racing, and Jo from the UK. There are some other names - just not sure what they are right now! We will all be wearing our PowderPuff Shirts, so you will be able to tell who is racing in that class!
See You There!

Udo,
Paula is a great name for a car! Just curious - why did Karin name her car Paula?
The more ladies - the better! Looking forward to being a part of all the ladies when we get there. Good times!

Adele,
10 Ladies - That is awesome. Looking forward to meeting all of them.
Only 7 more days till we leave for London - getting ready with most of the packing this weekend. We are bringing 4 suitcases - two of them with stuff. One has Ritchie's case and parts. One has PowderPuff things and etc, and the other two have our clothes in them. So we have a big load coming over there. We are looking so forward to it though - Mike deserves a vacation.
I will call you this weekend.
