I tried to knock down the tire wall at "old" 4 in the Reno Cup race. aka Salinas off ramp. First lap, I dive to the inside, find Joe Vardi's oil (how come everybody knew that but me?) Went straight into the tire wall, pirouetted and came back down, put into gear and took off up the hill. The corner worker called it in as a "roll & continue" because from his vantage point across the track, he saw the cars top and bottom..
So, lets see, turns 2, 3 & 4. Anybody ugly up the corkscrew??
SSB, Would this be the same Joe V. who works with the Amick's here in NC? If so, he's still known to spill a little oil every once in a while. I did some races with him a few years back and helped build some Motec stuff for him. Great guy though, just wish he would stand up when I'm talking to him. LOL. Btw Thanx for all the great history lessons here.

Ya, ask him to stand up, then see if he remembers that BMW 320 at Laguna "we'all" put together at TurboTech in North Hollywood for the RS IMSA race?
And what happened to "Fat Dancer?"
