    If you go here and fill it out, when you hit the button at the bottom, it dies. And they don't answer the phone. Amazon says it's "temporarily out of stock." Anyone know what's going on? Hope it's not a lawsuit...

    Would have made great Christmas presents...

    This is Smokey's own publishing company, currently being run by his daughter Trish. She's a super nice lady and our neighbor here in Daytona.

    I've heard that if you're having trouble getting a copy, one of the guys from GRM will stop by Trish's place and pick it up for you

    I love my copy.

    Would love more "how I cheated" stuff though :)

    I thought the first part about his experiences in WW2 was the best. After that the writing gets worse and worse. I skipped over a lot just because it was unreadable.

    Just ordered two copies - already have one for myself.

    Sorry if I've missed you- the weblink you posted is on our older ordering site, the one Tom posted is correct. We were out for the SEMA show and I came home sick. I do have books here in Daytona so either give me a call or try the other form. Amazon will be out of stock a lot this time of year, try again even on the same day sometimes.

    Ahem. Smokey didn't cheat. He just had interesting interpretations of the rules, and worked very hard between the lines.

    That's why the rules are printed on paper: Paper bends.
