I was invited to drive that car back when Craig "Speedycop" was
starting to build it up. Unfortunately, I had to be in Seattle last
weekend to give a talk on the HP-24 kit sailplane project and to
discuss its self-launch and sustainer variants.

However, this weekend I am suiting up to drive one of two twin-engined
Toyotas at a west coast race in the same 24 Hours of LeMons racing
series. That time I spent in the right seat of a Cessna Mixmaster is
gonna come in handy!

Thanks, Bob K.
