Tim, I believe your Dad was the safety chair when I started autocrossing and or he was the one that would run the track and give it the okay in the morning before we started on the day. The all encompassing sounds of Porsche tail pipes at full wail coupled with tires screeching throughout the day could only be supplanted by your Dad's booming voice. To this day I still think of his assessments of the tracks in each our driver's meeting, "Okay everyone, listen up. We have a good track today, a fast track, but a safe track."
Happy Birthday to a great guy. Thanks for sharing.
