Just got off the phone with Gary Medley who let me know that his dad, the indomitable Tom Medley, proud papa of Stroker McGurk, passed away this past Sunday. There will not be a funeral, but a memorial will certainly be put together in the near future, doubtless within a month. I have attached a cartoon of his great work. I count him among those great speed oracles who knew from personal experience and who crafted this grand hobby we all now enjoy. I am not too sad that he is gone, because as Gary put it, "He went flat out to the end." When I think of all the people that man has made smile through the years there isn't much room for tears; he left us laughing! -- LandSpeed Louise
