He would have won this year but the motor let go just 2 miles from the top. Watch out at the SNORE race this weekend Tom is racing his 2 seat Jimco in his own back yard...

you have to watch out for the old guys. remember that old age and treachery sometimes is bigger than youth and enthusiasm. in fact, it is most of the time...

I am bummed to say that I was in the video and watched him take this corner live at Pikes Peak this year and I didnt get a chance to see the exit of the corner! I was standing on the inside of the corner about 30 feet before hand. This was only the 3 corner up the hill but already you could tell he was in a class all by himself!

He had it all the way and I don’t think he even flinched…

Cool shot!

Absolutely Andy. Here's a vid from 2008. Same corner. His turbo AWD would have been fine if he'd just turned right and pinned it.
