Well it is summer in Charlotte 90 + degrees so not much progess on the 40 this month.
The 40 will be getting a new home soon as we are closing on our new house on the 8th. I am exicted because we have a three car garage and will have a good working space.
Also a friend of mine does a small cable access tv show about racing. He invited me to go to Holman Moody with him last Saturday. It was cool to see several GT40s in various stages of completion. Lee made us feel very welcome as we chatted about the history of the company and drivers that drove for them.
When I was a young boy I used to read about these great race car drivers,crew chiefs and mechanics. Over the years working in the racing business I have gotten to meet and talk with a lot of them. Like Smokey Yunick, Bobby and Donnie Allison, Rex white, Johnny Benson, Bill (the maverick) Golden, Steve Kinser, Harry Gant, Ernie Irvan and many more.
These guys always have good stories and most love to share them. For me is always makes history come alive.
