Correct. Did it in 1971 (or was it 1972?) in my '66 Corsa.

I'm going to say.........false. I'm sure you were at road Atlanta, and maybe in some kind of minor shunt. Probably a pinky finger or something.

Correct answer goes to Hillsdale, how I wish it was a minor shunt but it was more like a lesson in how to disassemble a race car in less than 2 seconds, ouch!

You have the floor good Sir Hillsdale.

MJ-

Perhaps you need to add a new rule. If the last winner does not post in say 1 day, then maybe the last winner would go again.

Since dayton had let this die.

I agree with you Sleeper... What if we have an one-time poster post in this thread (not that Dayton is) and then never come back to the forum? The thread will never continue then... Good idea sleeper!
