We will be headed back before Riverside event. May try to fly back out for Legends of Riverside.
Would be nice to see some old friends from those days. Did you check with Jennifer to see if
she is planning trip. Probably not because she hates to fly. I know she is planning to be at Indy
this year. Are you planning on any trips to Indy? 2010 or official 100th 2011 or Elkhart July? Take care, Don

Thanks for the compliments and adding me as a friend. I think Rick has seen my pictures of his Boraxo Lola F5000. I spoke with him at Road America & Watkins Glen in 2008 during the F5000 40th Anniversary events. I also ran into him at the Indy 500 last year. Here is a link to the gallery of Boraxo images from Road America that I prepared for Rick Dittman posted on my Smugmug site at:

I started shooting vintage events in 2005, wish I had picked up a camera sooner! Some of my acquaintances have been shooting since the 60's. I'll have my 2010 dream sheet for the events I plan to attend posted soon. I hope to see you at some of the events.
Take care,

Please mark each option in 1, 2 or 3. (1. Never used; 2. Used sometimes; 3. Frequently used)
Lola:
Lola car:
Lola racing car:
Lola part:
Lola spare:
Lola component:
Lola heritage:
Historic Lola:
Lola service
Lola restoration
Any other frequently used words?
Thanks a lot for your support!
Sincerely,

Yes, you are correct I am jn Hawaii.
I live on a 5 square mile estate so that I am able to drive my cars 'ad nauseum', and although I have been caught by the Cops on 2 occasions all they can do is give me a warning since the road are not public.
Hope that you are enjoying the M20 and most importantly that you are driving it!
Do keep in touch, Stuart
