I don't remember if they were there any of the times you have been 
wrenching at ROAD AMERICA, but for a while two of those NISSAN cars used to paddock 
along the fence next to the entrance to the False Grid, and right across the 
road from our traditional paddock space (especially at the SVRA and BRIC) 
vintage events.  The first time I saw one, I smiled at seeing one at a 
'vintage' event, and sent Kas a picture saying, "Look what's parked across the 
road from us at a 'vintage' event."  All Kas wanted to know was, "...is she 
still FAST?"  And of course she was.
