Trevor:

Not only the snips but the BRAKES. That car was like a truck, coming in at 2,600 lbs. Huge, huge problem. Phil once told me that it was one of the most challengening obstacles he had encountered, given the weight and the cycle times of braking from 200 mph on down.

As Leo Levine once said in his book, Ford, the Dust and the Glory: A Racing History, "If Phil Remington is a mechanic, than 98% of people who call themselves mechanics are true imposters".
