So, (not that it matters) I had my stint with racing. SCCA pro Rally from 1981-1986.
And snowmobiles all the way through the 70’s.
Saw plenty of good men die.
It’s not romantic. It’s just dead.

Even stranger, while I was in Finland, my host and I were talking about the Finnish rally scene, and he said Marcus Gronholm was a neighbor. And then tells me how Timo Rautianen (sp) was co driving for Marcus in Turkey, and a piece of re-bar came up through the floor of the car (at 100kph) and pierced Timo in the anus by several inches!

How I loved rally back then. But a crash and a new wife ended all that.
How’s that for ot?

Out there doing it best I can.
