Who is the ultimate Se7en guru?

Help me here.

 

 

 

I know there are a ton of different types of cars out there, but is there one person who is considered the ultimate guru of all things Se7en here in the US?

 

 

 

If not, I would love to know people's thoughts on who might be the guru of each particular marque.

 

 

 

Anyone? Anyone? Bueller?

I have two of Dennis Ortenburger's books, "The Legend of the Lotus Seven" and "Lotus Seven and the Independents". I would think with the research he has done on those two books, he would be a wealth of knowledge for all things Se7en. I think he lives in California, and was building a Locost if I remember correctly. Not sure if he is a member or lurker here though...

Chris in MA has a great deal of time/grade on the cars.

 

 

 

Woody in CA certainly knows a lot.

 

 

 

Chip Bond in VA is in the running.

 

 

 

And probably another 10-20 guys around the country that I don't even know.

 

 

 

Locally David L is an encyclopedia of 7 autocross applied knowledge---gained over 25 years of trying to go faster in a 7.

 

 

 

The guy @ Dave Bean and the restorer in Santa Barbara are also worthy of mention.

 

 

 

And Nathan @ RMSCI is especially helpful on Caterhams.

 

 

 

I'm siure that the rest of you can come with more names than I just did.

Dennis O. was one of the first people I approached (via his publisher) regarding speaking. He politely declined.

 

 

 

Since I think most of our time at 7-7-7 will be spent driving and socializing, I'm not so much interested in a Keynote type speaker as much as a few folks to host info sessions/participate in roundtable discussions.

 

 

 

Actually, a funny one might be BECs vs. Car Engines...with Jeff and Mazda squaring off!
