[Mg-t] FW: Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix

[Charlie Baldwin]

John,
You forgot the light poles, rails on the sides of the bridge over 
Panther Hollow, the Jersey barrier at the end of the start/finish 
straight (turn 1, I guess), hay bale chicane, etc.  I'm sure that it is 
a very challenging course to drive, but has to be great fun.
It sure is fun to watch, too.
Charlie
