      Totally agree, I am already planning a return trip. Prior to this time, I hadn't been since the mid 80s.

    I was at his museum years ago and met his Dad. I saw the A7 there and loved seeing it on the stand. I'm partial to them since i worked on A7Es in the late 70s for the Navy. What a memory of that place. I even saw Don race at the old CT dragway. What a great man!

    I went years ago when I was a kid while my family was on vacation on our way to Disney World. Got lucky because he was there working on a car. Got his autograph with a grease smudge on the page which I lost a long time ago but still have the picture he took with my dad.

      Great memory. I went as a young kid in the mid 80s. Now, into my 40s... had to go back. I dragged my girlfriend who had never been. Don is in his 90s now, hopefully he'll be around for many years to come.

      This one is in Ocala Florida, right off of I-75. My better half actually was on board with going, we planned it as part of our vacation.
