I too had the pleasure of meeting "Dammit Dick" as he was on the way to
the Florida GOF. We sat here at the house for more hours than we planned
swapping yarns about MG and cars and gearheads in general. Then took the
GT's (his V8 and my 4 banger and played on the roads while supposedly I
was leading him to his motel.
Who was it that said only the good die young?
