being from CAT'S world headquarters(peoria,il)) this might give me an opportunity to meet Jeff. as ward, jeff's brother, also drove the CAT car, he made visits to our AHL hockey games.they might let him drive a "BIG D-11" dozer since they are produced in east peoria. hopin in p-town.

Wow! This is certainly interesting! Good thing I still have a ton of Caterpillar Racing gear from when Ward was with them! =)
