[JAGNUTS] Re: Davidson

[MGAdams]

I just went through all my competitor listings and results from 1959 to
1969, and only found a XK150S and XKE models for Jags. Doesn't mean the car
did not compete at some time in Davidson, but not likely in a race. Could
have been in a Gymkhana or other non-race event. I will try to review the
archives and watch for other events with Jags. Do you have a previous
owner(s) name to watch for. Might be on old membership lists with one of the
Sports Car Clubs.
