And another contribution to it's history.

  I've owned and raced two Yenko Stingers, but they are just gussied up 
Corsas compared to the Bill Thomas/Doug Roe car. I have a right to that opinion , 
I've owned both. 
   What was I sublimily thinking when I did the '64 sports racer last 
year---eerie isn't it?
   What use did I have for the turbo engine when I removed it from the 
Stinger. Why was I turbocharging a Stinger with "remembering Doug Roe" written on 
the cold air intake----shuddder????
  Gosh, my / your/ our cup just overflows.
