Indianapolis Raceway Park a week ago Tuesday will air on AutoWeek on
Speedvision two weeks from today at 7:00 PM & 11:00 PM ET. It is based
on my wide-chassis Eleven, #275 -- ex-works Sebring 1957 -- and should
have some fleeting shots of Gary Bartlett's D-Type in the background.

It's interesting that Dr. Brett Johnson is one of most recognized and
dedicated 356 Porsche restoration historians and author....and yet...has had
the "flexibility" to become a multi-marque devotee of motorsports. His
restoration of the ex-Sebring Lotus XI is extraordinary...in as much as he
did most of the detail work him$elf.
Brett's owning and racing a British car ( with oil leaks, electrical
failures, blown head gaskets, broken spokes, lost bolts, etc...) among that
tightly-knit 356 Porsche (Por-sha) purist group is somewhat of a
shocker...but kudos to him and all the others!!
Looking forward to watching the Speedvision segment.
