Very happy for Dempsey, however. The guy put his passion ahead of his career, put in the time and the money, came at it with modesty, built up his skills with Pat Long and others, and he got to stand on the podium at Le Mans. I think most of us on this board (at least the track day crowd) would try to do the same if we could afford to! And that's a sport where you can easily kill yourself, we're not talking snooker here. Well played sir, well deserved ! (the fact that he did it at 49 gives me hope too, where's that lottery ticket)

+1....if I could I would.
