Stan -- I wonder if you would be kind enough to circulate this for-sale message to your membership. I am planning to do this season and then get out of sports car racing.I'm sorry I never got around to doing one of your events, but they were just too far away for me to get to.Also, if you have a surface mailing address I would like to send along a picture - I don't know how to send them via the internet.Thanks in advance if you can help me and best wishes for a great season this year.Carl Goodwin(440)557-5089 or(719)229-72458529 Silver Creek DriveNovelty, Ohio 44072
   RACE CAR FOR SALE Ex-Jim MillerSprite HP - #94,turquoise blue After four years of racing, at Nelson Ledges, Mid-Ohio,Bellefontaine Hill Climb and Put-in-Bay, I am selling the famous Jim MillerSprite – winner of 3 Runoffs - to go back to sailing. This is a “Square Body”1962 car that Miller race-prepared in 1972 - it has a 50 year history as aracing car. It has a current Sports Car Club of America log book (as well asthe earlier ones from the Jim Miller era) and is up-to-date on the belts, 10lb. fire suppression system, and fuel cell. Specifications for the SCCAH-Production class (HP - #94) include the 1275cc engine with 1-1/4-inch SUcarburetors, ribcase transmission and Wilwood disc brakes. Racing equipmentincludes mid-mounted battery and Accusump, oil cooler, real magnesium 8-spokewheels (American Racing).  Race results while I have had the car are a first, a secondand two thirds from SCCA, three thirds and a first from Bellefontaine HillClimb and no trophies racing against the modified cars at Put-in-Bay -- only alittle fun with “The Middle of the Pack Racing Club,” about eight of my friendsand I. We’re not in the lead and we’re not bringing up the rear, we’re in themiddle. After the checkered flag falls, we meet at one of the trailers where abottle of champagne is being opened. We pour it into some cheesy little plasticcups and tell exaggerated stories about our great driving. All this is yours ifyou become the new owner of the ex-Jim Miller Sprite. Car is available Sept. 24 after Put-in-Bay. Trade for J27sailboat or make me a cash offer. CARL GOODWIN (author of the book on the Put-in-BayRoad Races) 440-557-5089 or (719)229-7245; Cleveland; attlastt at frontier.net  I will be at these upcoming events where you can see the car:Bellefontaine Hillclimb August 26, 2023, SCCA Nelson Ledges Big Dog’s Last BarkDivisional Sept. 16 & 17, 2023, and Put-in-Bay Road Race Reunion Sept. 20 –23, 2023.
