[Tigers] Hemmings article

[David Sosna]

Hi Kirk:

Thanks for the rest of the story!

The jump in horsepower output reminded me of a story about a racing 
Tiger that went like crazy out on the track and when somebody (Doane 
Spencer?) was asked how they got such great performance out of the 
little 260 replied "could you tell the difference between a 260 and 289 
just by looking at it?"

You don't suppose Mr. Garrad......no, of course not. :-)

Thanks again!

Best Regards

David Sosna

P.S. for those of you who know the story, my apologies for garbling it. ;-)
