A photo on my office wall.

It's just a car amongst a few other pics. I was dusting and thought what is this after all? Ferrari" Aston Martin? Maserati?

Turns out it is all 3 in a contemporary car by a David Brown. Not that David Brown that rescued Aston Martin, but a much younger guy of no apparent relation. And he designed and built the Speedback GT.

I don't know how this pic came to me but I liked it and it ended up next to the Porsche GT1. Not at all in the same ballpark.



I guess these have been around for years and I somehow didn't notice. He makes 10 per year. So you might guess they are spendy.

It is unique and clean but I can’t decide whether I like it or not.

This a collage of different road maps we found at my wife's grandmother's house. It is all road trips they took. The entire map is in there, The 1936 Texas map is kinda cool to see no interstates.

I also have a photo of my 911 in a hard corner at an autocross in 1996 that was shot on film!
