If you look at the Ferrari GTC picture, you will see the dark spot on the hood. 
There are 2 of these in every picture I take with myu camera. I have another 
example on a Corvette from the Nickey Chevrolet event (that I still don't have 
posted). 

Anyone know what this might be? Can't see any dirt anywhere. 

Thanks,

All work and no play pisses John off. Trying to bounce back from a complete HD 
failure at work (power outage, and restart during another surge fried it). Plus 
more than I can get done at home. At least I have a job. 

Her are some tidbits. 
Don't know if they will go through (size) but I am throwing them out there.

Very kool.  Interesting biography thumbnail:

Since Hawthorn's last race was the Morroco Grand Prix in 1959, it reminded me 
that I was at that GP in 1971...on a Norton 750 (borrowed.)  Very few photos 
from that event...probably because I was a wee bit "dazed and confused" due to 
various chemicals...and I got thrown out of the Hilton hotel there for being a 
"feelthy heepee."  Not long after than I returned to the states and eventually 
tried to adopt a normal lifestyle.  Never really worked.  I kept hearing this 
different drummer, see....and it was probably John Christensen.  :) 

For those who don't know, John's a drummer and played with a band called 
"Jonesin" for quite a while. 

Btw, John...hurry up with them Concours photos...I'm still stuck on the salt 
flats race cars.
