    ...the fella at the far right in the photo, with the captain(roger) & don...is Jay Signore, who worked for roger. they are going over the details of the brand new sunoco dx(later named cam 2) cigarette 40 at delivery time. Jay was the guy that headed up roger's special projects, like starting up the IROC series, and making the street versions of the those camaro's, that don & doc magoon & others bought from them for fun...

    When a president recognizes and associates with a race driver, it gives the motor-sport some gravitas.
    Like Trump giving Penske the medal.

    and ... 43 at the White House.

    Did you ever turn a lap in a car at a race track?

    Nope, i never did.
    Did do a heat in the rain at BRANDS HATCH on a PORCUPINE MATCHLESS —- owner couldn’t handle it in the wet, most of the other riders fell off. Race was won by a kid called JOHN SURTEES —-he was riding an RDG SPECIAL !!!! HE LAPPED ME.

    "He lapped me" ..... I know about Sanders in a boat, but am having a little difficulty swallowing Surtees on two wheels. Next you'll probably claim Fangio with four wheels.
    However, I suppose there's nothing wrong with a novice getting lapped by the best

    ‘Twas a rainy day at Brands Hatch. Probably thirty riders in the novice “run what you brung” event. All sorts of bikes , even the odd race bike —— Pete Tester had swopped his 7R AJS for a PORCUPINE . Pete dropped it on the flooded track and was cross at the world . Told him he was riding it like a big girls blouse—- was one of those “IF YOU THINK YOU CAN DO BETTER MOMENTS” ——- me, being twenty years old and the dingleberry i can be sometimes, took it on. Was a race of attrition , carnage , crosswinds and hailstones, with a bit of sleet throw in for good measure .
    Just before the finish, a 250 RDG SPECIAL howled past me and took the flag —— was actually the very first time i had even heard of JOHN SURTEES . He was still a teenager. I never ever again entered a motorcycle competition of any kind .

    Car racing was something you only read about —— although seeing as how WILLABEE mentioned it ——— Fangio would visit his friend BILL SHORT . He owned Southwater garage before i did . Bill was BENTLEY race team manager just before the Second World War . Yes, i knew him quite well for many years.
    NAH-NAH-NA-NA-NAH ?????????????

    WOW, PRESIDENTS,——LEGENDS——-Never thought i would see all those famous folk on the TRICKS site. You just never can tell !!!
    Not a lot to inflame the imagination this morning. Pubs and restaurants open again—- flights to Portugal—- but that’s about it. Jews and the Arabs at each other again /????? No surprise there , they’ve been doing it since Pontious was a Pilate .
    This old world keeps on turning around ?????? Seems to me like “spinning” would be a better turn of phrase .
    Biden Bashing has replaced Trump Bashing ——— whilst Boris Bashing is on the up— ????? It’s a funny old world !!!!!!!!!!!
    SHORTAGE OF A CHOCOLATE FLAKE IN ICE CREAM AS HEADLINES JUST ABOUT SUMS IT UP????????
