Hi, CTRon, Go to the SCTA-BNI link from this site then click on results from El Mirage. You will see in the monthly results pictures of some of the entrants. I think the car ran several races at El Mirage and I believe I saw a couple of pics . I hope I am not having a brain fade.Hope this helps, Over & out, Mike R.

John, could you point me to that photo you found on Google?  All I come up with is the Dennis Varni lakester.

Thanks,

I have a couple shots from Speedweek 2003 that I'll be glad to send you. Sendme your e-mail address since I've don't know how to post a photo on the Forum. My e-mail is: jrmhellmuth@aol.com
Dick O'Mara got in the 2 club this year running a Jack Stirnemann turbo's flathead. They made the minimum number of runs and then headed home. I expect there weren't many photos taken.
Hope this helps.
