14/06: A LEGEND takes a SEAT
I have had many people ask about a picture that appears
on the "home page",of Project Track Champion's w/site,and
a huge picture which is part of P.T.C's "static" display.
The picture of interest is the one in which NASCAR legend
Rusty Wallace #2 is seen sitting in the drivers seat of
the P.T.C. car.
This picture of Mr.Wallace was taken on the afternoon
of January 16,2010. The location was the CPT RACING
EXPERIENCE,London Ontario,Canada.
The photo was taken by a CPT staff member.
As P.T.C.'s concept creator.I was most delighted to share
the car,and it's purpose with Mr.Wallace.
I would like to THANK Jory Elliott.(son of "Bogus" Bob
Elliott),for introducing Mr.Wallace to me.
While in the company of Rusty Wallace,I was very aware
that he was deeply moved by the cars appearance,and more-
so it's purpose.
When he asked who helped me in the construction,I recall
responding by saying,...."the good Lord,and friends".
At that,Mr Wallace introduced me to a friend of his who had made the trip with him to the show.
It was while we where both standing beside the open door
on the drivers side,that a memorable scene happened.
It was a moment that he himself created, as only he could do.
Without any prompting,or suggestion by anyone in the immediate area,he turned to me,and offered the following
words in the form of a request.
Quote:"I wonder,would it be at all possible for me to be allowed the opportunity to seat in the drivers seat of
this amazing car"?
At first,I was not sure if I had heard him correctly.
But,one thing is sure,.... no one objected.
Once Rusty was seated in the drivers seat,one thing was
clearly noted.His big smile was an indication to all.
That like the many other drivers who sat in the same seat,... that he thought it was truly "Kool",to be seating
in the P.T.C. car.
Upon exiting,he made the comment,...."this must be such a
thrill for so many people".
Mr.Rusty Wallace,...Sir!,..YOU ARE SO RIGHT!!!
THANK YOU! for your time with us,and God Bless.
I would like to point out that there have been others
of NASCAR who I have had the extreme priviledge to share
the story of P.T.C. with.
To date I have been honoured to share the car with,...
Mr.Bobby Allison,Mr.Ron Fellows,Mr.Ken Schrader,
Mr.Chris Economaki,
and Mr.Timothy Booth of Michican International Speedway
I can say,each expressed words of congratulations,and best
wishes to all involved with P.T.C.
on the "home page",of Project Track Champion's w/site,and
a huge picture which is part of P.T.C's "static" display.
