    Jacobsin ran the 1000 last year with new glass, I know that much. Turner, I also heard was building a new truck but I haven't heard anything about it since, seems to have disappeared.

    I heard Groff's car went to Australia but not 100% sure.

    Myers had the porter that was painted like ol' general lee, and I am pretty sure they debuted their new HMS at the TT250....

    Groffs car was for sale. They didn't seem to have very good luck. Why did Boyle sell the RPS car?

    Re: What Happend to Them???

    Yeah Dan Myers is completely different then Joe Myers in the HMS Avenger. Dan still has his car he was just renting the PRC1 from Bilek for a couple of races waiting for some work to be done on his car (Jimco). He should be racing his car at the 500 I saw it at his shop in HB two weeks ago and it looks ready to go. Also Boyle/Brant did in fact buy a new HMS Avenger and I believe are selling the RPS class1

    Re: What Happend to Them???

    Mike Jakobson was suppose to run the 500, but when I talked to him last month he said he might sit it out unless a sponsor wanted to kick down some money. He has been testing quiet a bit and seems to be working out a lot of bugs. All that might have changed, it has been a month.
