How appropriate -- it currently has an oil leak in the oil pressure
gauge, which drips on the floor and/or driver's crotch!

Irv,
It's a 1960 TR3A (!) and guess which of my three British cars didn't
start this morning? -- a short stint on the battery charger assured its
lap around (most of) the F-1 track this afternoon. Really fun; driving
down the front straight and crossing that yard of bricks the wrong way.
Turn one (F-1) had already been blocked by very heavy concrete barriers,
so I couldn't pass the pace car like Schuey passed Coulthard.
The Eleven was not too fond of some of the really tight turns (and the
30 - 40 mph pace). Julie took pictures which I'll get developed early
next week. I can e-mail JPEGs if anyone wants them.
