Dean,

That's sad, I was just admiring your car last evening in Kit Car Mag with my brother. I am glad it ended without injuries.

My 76 year old pilot buddy Rod carries (as all pilots do) a pilots check list. He visually and physically goes through the entire list for every flight. He says that's why he's still flying at 76. Amazingly he's a talker too, but he never skips the check list. I guess Rod's got a lesson for all of us GT40 guys.

I believe Mario Andretti and Lucien Bianchi pulled a similar stunt in a GT40 MKIV at Le Mans in 1967. I guess you have good (bad?) company with the big guys. (Huhhh!)Must be an age old condition.

Golf is okay, but just doesn't do the same for ya...
and all of us need therapy or a help group (as Ron mentioned) for something... Isn't that some of the reason why we log into GT40s.com daily for head food and repair?

Good luck on the repairs. I'm sure when Ray's finished you'll just have a bad memory as scar tissue.

Cheers,
Howard
