Mutt Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 James made quite an impression with his Series One that he drove over from Asheville on Saturday. He bought the car from Ned Gallaher, who bought it in NY several years ago and drove it home! Ned's about 6'2" and fills that car up pretty well. James is a very experienced vintage racer, and still has a Sports 2000 and a couple of old Lolas. He fills our otherwise boring slot car race nights with racing stories from the early sixties Sebrings right up to date. Ask him about Jimmy Clark's farmhouse. A couple of years ago, he and Olymar7 (Berk) built that car from scratch, just for fun. In January he took pity on my Lotus lust, and sold me a few parts he had sitting around, like an '85 Caterham rolling chassis, built Crossflow, bullet box, and other bits, and is tutoring me through my build. He's a great guy, and I'm glad so many of you got to meet him. Mutt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al N. Posted July 13, 2007 Share Posted July 13, 2007 It's a shame he didn't stay for Saturday night dinner...but glad he came by. (Though Killboy caught him practicing RHD on the Dragon).. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
