[Tigers] Tiger help in Hawaii

[Thomas Witt]

No, Chris Hill is in Northern California.

I did some searching in my old Tiger files.  I found three emails.  Yes, his 
first name was Chris, - his last name was Vaught. The last email I have on 
record had him living in Mississippi. But, yes, your recollection and mine 
about parting the car our seems correct. Also an email related to the parts 
for sale does seem to indicate he had modified it for drag racing.  I also 
remember at the time there was some discussion that he would even be allowed 
drag race to because of the short wheelbase of the Tiger.

  Lastly I recall that at some point in his service career (or shortly 
after) he was in So. Cal. and some of the local Tiger owners spent a day 
with him.
