    Hello John:
    Unfortunately no. I did not make the runoffs. I ran well in several races in 69 but was plagued with DNF's....each one different. Dissapointing as I always felt that I treated the car gently. I did go as crew for Bernie Diedrick (sp?) TR-3 who went as an alternate in 1969.
    My friend Bob Krokus did make the ARRC during that period in a TR-3 , Black # 72 at Daytona and in a GT-6 and I think a Spitfire. If you have any photos of Bob please advise and I will let him know.
    Many Thanks,
    Fred
