That sucks. The TWR XJ's were something else.

WOW. I never got the privilage to see them run, but the TWR Jags were tremendous.

I sure hope there is a Group C in Heaven.

I remember back in 2k1 or 2k2 when I first got my dad interested in F1. I can't remember which race it was and neither Arrows car would fire on the grid. My dad had a fit. He said "if I would have spent this much money and neither of my cars would start I WOULD QUIT! I WOULD QUIT!" He's still an F1 fan.

Very, very sad. How F1 and endurance racing would have been different.
