[Fot] Pleasant surprise

[Bill Babcock]

Wow, that’s a really tall roll bar hoop, is he perhaps not wanting to damage his hat in a rollover?? And pipe insulation for the padding, after all that beautiful work? Gorgeous car, makes me want to get busy-er on mine.

I appreciate the sentiment, it's a fine way to finish my long run with Peyote, my faithful and amazing race car for 22 great years. Thanks folks.

I’ll probably race it a few times and then sell it to someone who will drive the wheels off it, as Will Hart, the young racer I sold Peyote to has been doing with Peyote. I think a few more races and he’ll be beating my best times at our West Coast tracks.
