PRDA in Can-Am 1971-4
i spent four summers (1971-4) as a volunteer for Lothar Motschenbacher, working Mosport, The Glen, Mid-Ohio, and Road America. while the travel and racing involvement were fun, the best aspect was the people i met, resulting in almost-40-year friendships with Marilyn (Motschenbacher) Halder and Bill Tobin, former crack mechanic for the PRDA and Motschenbacher. a lot of fun with everyone, especially the PRDA bunch. i can still see Terry Deren with her Simonize can full of butterscotch pudding...

Those are GREAT pics! Thanks so much for sharing. Before logging in I couldn't see them so I went to your Facebook site. Great shots there as well. Didn't you ever get out to Bridgehampton with the team? I know I saw them race there.
