Several years ago I had the ultimate pleasure of participating in an event on the wonderful island.

Dan Bytnar of Lake Point  Tube Chassis in Cumming, Ga. built a two seat dragster unlike any other ever built. It could be driven as a front motor car or a back motor car. I delivered it to the shipping co. in Miami and flew to Aruba and had to wait for THREE WEEKS for it to get there. Bummer huh!!!! Beloshi Beer was one of my sponsors, and we had to take the car to the radio station for a showing and interview. I thought that was the weirdest I had ever heard. To my amazment about 2000 people showed up at the station to see the car. We handed out beer to people DRIVING by. The next day was registration at the strip for the upcoming race. Not a racecar running on the property Thursday night but there were about 3000 people showed up to Bar B Q and party. We gave about 20 people rides that night and was the hit of the weekend. I came back but the car is still there,I guess they liked it more that me. My most memorable race I can remember, and I've been to them all.
Wonderful Island and people. Even the dogs can understand 3 languages! Wanna go back - Glynn White
