Not Ranked
Yet another dark day. Such a waste. Dick was the first driver I saw who could really drive a 427 - I will remember forever watching him blast #198 up a hillclimb road in Nevada at a Ferrari Owners Club meeting - and he was the only driver not to lift as he blasted around the first corner - Fastest Time of the Day, of course.
He rang me recently to talk about books and motorcycle racing and the possibility of coming to Goodwood some time. He's one of a very few people I would forgive for waking me in the early hours of the morning (UK time!!). Strange how a conversation with someone like that makes the world seem a much better place. He will be missed.
