Re: The passing of Dave Reilly.
My thanks also go to Tom for passing on my brief letter to the family. It kept bouncing back by e mail. David's reach was far & broad.

Re: David Reilly's Passing
Stirling's driving of Mercedes 722 at Laguna Seca added huge value. Yes I accept it was a race car.

Tom
Will do. The Stirling Moss connection which is easily proven should add value
