<BR>The FOT was well represented and they held the audience attention for more than an hour. Brian Redman was there, too, but decided he was unecessary to the success of the program and quickly passed the baton.

<BR>Thank you so much for all you did to make The Legends Speak a very successful event. We had a record turnout for our event, and all the speakers were great. I greatly enjoyed meeting John Macartney and hearing his humorous stories from his days at Triumph as well as his very sobering personal tale of PTSD. Bob Johns spoke fondly of his racing at Sebring in 1957. He and and his wife were very friendly and I enjoyed speaking with them immensely. Kas provided a great view from the technical and managerial perspective, and it was great to see Ed Diehl again and to meet his wife Linda this time.
<BR>
<BR>Thank you so much for arranging and bringing the speakers for this event. And thank you for keeping after me. All in all, it was a success. I heard many compliments and good comments.
<BR>
<BR>Thanks again for your invitation to stop up at the Triumph paddock. Unfortunately, I ended up having other commitments to which I had to attend during the rest of the weekend, so I never got back up to the track. We hope you can make it back next year.
<BR>
