Hi Frank,
Thanks for watching and writing.  To bad we didn't meet at Sonoma.  That 
weekend being the Charity Challenge, invites people to make a donation to 
Speedway Children Charities, and get a ride in a car of their choice.  It would 
have been a great time to get on track as a passenger.  Minimum donation of $75 
get three laps.  Drivers will go as fast as you like.  I didn't sign up this 
year, wanting to save the car, engine and tires.    
I very much enjoy racing at Sonoma.  It's a great track.  
Dave and his TR2 were an early inspiration to me when I was building my car and 
now we are good friends.  Yes, his car has disk brakes all around as per the 
factory LeMan cars.  We always share paddock space and Jim Alder with his XK120 
is usually with us too.  Jim has been racing his Jag for 37 years and is well 
know for being the only guy that "always" drives his car to the track from his 
home in Reno.  I think he said 145 races now.  Greg Powell with his very fast 
Morgan and a new Spitfire driver also joined us in the paddock.  It was a 
really nice group and we had a great time throughout the weekend.  Dave's wife 
Laura provided excellent gourmet style meals for us all both Saturday and 
Sunday.  
Looking forward to next season,
Dave H.

        I would like to share a recent video of my TR3 racing at Sonoma.&nbsp;

        I ran the Rolex race at Laguna this past August for the fourth year in
