A good friend and old bar regular of mine is going to die tomorrow. He is 68 years old and is in stage IV congestive heart failure and has made a conscious choice not to pursue further treatment. The machines that are assisting his breathing will be turned off tomorrow at 4pm and I will be there until whenever.
So that's sad and all but that's not the point of this story. So Dennis mentioned to me a couple times that he "used to race cars" when he was younger" but never really went into detail. Turns out, this is him: Dennis Brown (USA) - Racing Sports Cars So yeah, he wasn't a world beater but this was a guy who raced a Porsche 718 RS 61 Spyder in the Watkins Glen Grand Prix in 1965. How f'ing cool is that? He also raced an Austin-Healey 100m, a "Kelly Special" Porsche (what is this) an Elva and an Abarth Dumila (no idea what this is either). So cheers Dennis. I am sorry I can't get the Speed network in your shitty hospital room or bring you a steak, beer and cigar (because the nurses won't let me).
