So, you will be one of the 2009/2024 reunion people!

The 2024 GT Reunion is pleased to announce we have a Master of Ceremonies/Honorary Race Director, one David Hobbs! "Hobbo" as he is known has deep ties to the GT40 having not only driven for JWA but also having driven the Lola MK 6 in its LeMans debut before becoming the concept car for the Ford...

The factory does not fit ant gas lifts. The most common setup is from Olthoff Racing.

BEST DIVORCE LETTER EVER Dear Wife, I’m writing you this letter to tell you that I’m leaving you forever. I’ve been a good man to you for 7 years & I have nothing to show for it. These last 2 weeks have been hell ... Your boss called to tell me that you quit your job today and that was the last...

Yep, that is the one.

Earlier cars had a key to lock the wheel on and two "mushrooms" to release the wheel. Later units have no key and two flanged stems to release.

Well, Allen and the Lola will be in attendance. And the sole surviving Mirage MK I. How about the Kar Kraft "J" car recreation? Yes, it is coming. Oh, and the new Riley Technologies/Kar-Kraft MK IV "J5" clone as well. Want to talk transaxles? ZF Engineering's North American "ZF Motorsports"...

The second weekend of the PVGP is at Schenley Park in the city. Smaller bore cars racing on park roads! The "Ragtime Racers" group will be there, 1910 to 30's Indy cars and more. https://pvgp.org/general-event-information/
