I thought that the kids were to be on a Merlin, Top Kart, & Intrepid? I only see one Intrepid & I think he is a USA kid. Did they only send 2 drivers?

"...The difference between history's boldest accomplishments and it's most staggering failures is often, simply, the diligent will to persevere." -- Abraham Lincoln.

That pretty much sums up the weekend our team had in Vegas. Mike Doty, Jamie, and Gary Woltjer worked until they were physically and mentally exhausted, desperately trying to get the 64 back in the game. It was amazing how those guys never gave up. Their determination and perseverence really paid off. With the help of God, Trent and his team were able to pull off the championship and we couldn't be more grateful.

Tremendous thank-yous go out to everyone who helped Trent this season. It was a fabulous ride and a season we will always remember. Even though things were looking very bleak until late Saturday afternoon, somehow everyone was able to keep their spirits up. Between Mike's magic tricks, Gary's Oklahoma football game, and Jamie quoting Gumby 24/7, in some weird way it was still a lot of fun. Except for the part when I vomited twice during the final events. Embarassed

Anyway, all I can tell you is that as far as we Hindmans are concerned, Mike, Jamie, and Gary are the best in the business, bar none.

Thanks again to all for the support and kind words you've posted all season on this forum. It really meant a lot to Trent.

We are very, very proud to be a part of the Merlin Nation and we hope the MOJO will continue into next season as well! Very Happy

Thank you very much from the bottom of our hearts...

Love,
The Hindman Family Very Happy
