Sad to learn of the death of actor and author Tim Considine.  He wrote an epic history of Le Mans and was a Cobra enthusiast, as I recall.

Looks to me as if The Applegate Treasure will never be found. Rats.

It will forever remain a mystery like the Lost Dutchman Mine. Where is Nancy Drew when you need her?

   Most don't know it but Tim was a VERY good local ( So Cal) go kart driver. The "studios" didn't approve , but he did it anyway. Really down to earth guy. RIP

R.I.P.

I've written myself a reminder to find his book - "the Yanks at LeMans", sounds fantastic.
"I don't know what the world may need, but a V8 engine's a good start for me" (from Teen Angst by the band "Cracker")
