<P><FONT face=arial,helvetica>Yeah, I remember that one as well. Lots of bad
things happened in that race, and it was probably the reason that VSCDA
stopped going to Indianapolis Raceway Park. I came in after the red flag,
Jack was already in the paddock. Before I had even gotten out of the car,
and with tears in his eyes, he hugged me and told me that he thought it had
been me that had rolled over.</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=arial,helvetica>Another favorite memory also at IRP. My first
race there was in 1999, my 3rd race ever. Jack told me that in a TR4,
you could go through corner 1 flat out in 4th. I worked my way up to
it, and of course he was right. Passed several guys going into 1 thanks to
that tip. He never told me that I could do that in corner 2 as well. He
saved that one for Tony. :-)</FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=arial,helvetica>Jack built an engine for my car, and when it
was ready, I came out for the weekend so we could put it in the car and I
could take the car home. We got everything installed, and the engine
wouldn't turn at all. After much discussion, it was determined that the new
flywheel bolts were too long. I went home that Sunday evening without my
car. The next morning, around 11:00 AM, Jack called me. He said "listen to
this" and my new engine roared to life. By 11:00, he had pulled the tranny,
removed the flywheel, shortened the bolts, re-installed the tranny, and had
it running. </FONT></P>
<P><FONT face=arial,helvetica>You guys that only met him on the phone or via
email and thought he was special, you were right. The luckiest of
all were the ones that got to be with him.</FONT></P>
