This is the beginning of the race on Tuesday, July 7 before I broke what we think was a drop gear (haven't pulled the motor yet). Had a good scrap with a few Porsches before it all went bad. Great turn out for HMSA LSR for this vintage race. Wish the car had held together. But better to have a problem now, rather than the next race, which will be the 2011 Monterey Historics (Monterey Motorsports Reunion as it's called now). We'll be fixed up and running again before the race in August.
