Ron,

Thanks for sharing the Pete Brock photo! Bob Olthoff gave me ride in the new Brock Coupe and it is a real beauty. The car is truely is gran touring car. No, not a Corvette or a Porsche, but a very refined automobile nontheless. At least in the Coupe, unlike most other modern sportscars, you will not meet yourself on the road constantly. I think a person has to appreciate the engineering and brute force the car is capable of in order to even use the Coupe on a regular basis. Later in the day, Bob drove my brother to the Salisbury airport in the coupe and everyone over there went nuts. And, there was a roadster sitting next to coup that drew very little attention. I think Pete did a great job with the car and with the testing done by Bob Olthoff, it turned out great. Bob did a tremendous amount of work testing and refining the car and deserves a lot credit as well.
