Carroll,
I first met you in the mid sixties at a sports car racetrack called "Hilltop" in Bossier City, LA. I drove an MG1100 at the time, and people thought I was nuts to have a car with the motor in sideways and frontwheel drive. It would never catch on, they told me. I have always liked sports cars and went on to own a Sunbeam Tiger which I traded for a truck to water my horses. I wear a black western felt in the winter as a tribute to you, always have. You know how hot it gets here in east texas, so it is pretty much a straw the rest of the year. I want to thank you for all the autographs and down home kindness you have extended us over the years. When I grow tired of the cobra and the GT40, I will build one of those Banshee cars to get me back and forth to the grocery store and church. May God bless you and keep you safe.
Tommy Gayer
