Uh, Mom, you won your first championship in the 70s, I think, not that I 
remember that well. It's last one was in '87, which I do remember well. It 
literally blew away the field. No one was close.

Anyway, let me know if you need help remembering things that I barely do.

I should apologize? For running a very old car? Even when it won its first
championship, somewhere in the mid-80s, it was 20 plus years old. :)
Sheesh, it's always our fault. :)
And, yes, Colin promised he would sell more in one year than he did when he
first had the 7 homologated for SCCA racing in the early 60s.
