In early May there was a test and tune day herre in Seattle at PAcific
Raceways for SOVERN, our local vintage group. I was privelaged to see Tony
Garmey unload John James' newly recreated TR4 roll off the trailer. What a
beautiful job he did on the prep of this car. Did any of you look in the
trunk and see how the fuel cell was held down? Wow, should a roll over
occur it sure would not come loose.
Glad to hear he ran well. How did Bill Hart do, what did he bring? Did
Tony drive also?
