I know the owner of a local (small) race museum here in Riverside, ca. Riverside used to be a big race town until the raceway closed. Loads of fans here nonetheless (now watch at Fontana raceway which is close to here) and I'd like to e-mail them something for/from you! Often toyed with the idea of doing a local fundraiser at this museum and trying to get car talk guys to come out for it! May I have a private way to connect with you...e-mail is good. Best- cheryl
