Friday Topinka blogging

Posted in:

Illinois

(Saturday version)

International Speedway rider Tomas Topinka is from the Czech Republic (not sure if there’s any relation to our Judy). He has a website and he even sells fan club merchandise, like hats and shirts (I really want one of each, but it’s not completely clear how you can buy them).

This is a photo of Tom Topinka from his site:

Cool.

To join the fan club, you are advised to “send a cheque for Â£4.00 made payable to Tom Topinka” at:

Topinka Racing
C/O 56 Claudette Avenue
Spalding
Lincs
PE11 1HU.

I have no idea what that means.

Topinka has a bunch of personal stuff on the site as well. For instance, his favorite drink is “Guinness & Pepsi.” I’m not sure if he mixes the two or if he likes them in their own right. Cola-beer was a popular kid’s drink when I lived in Germany (half beer, half cola), so he could be a mixer.
