Bruce:
I remember seeing the tethered tennis balls. Wasn't there a rumor that you
blew balls off the top of cones with the sidepipes of your BSP 'Vette?
Name of the Pro Solo originator - Bill Johnson.

Right on, local boy :)
Event chairpersons Tom Nesbitt and yours truly.
Saw the creativeness of autocrossers at stopping before the
finish to match their dial-in.
You missed this one:
Created by SCCA to compete with the then privately owned and
operated "Pro Solo"
Remember chasing tennis balls that denoted cones had been hit?
Extra bonus for the name of the owner.
