Santa brought me the recent Phil Hill biography. Also must reading. Do any of our club racing brethren face vomit inducing anxiety before a race?
Coincidentally, I also rec'd the Steve Jobs bio. While they were a generation apart, their influences were somewhat similar. Phil Hill's mechanical appetite was whetted by the legions of welders and machinists trained and employed by the aerospace and defense industries. While Steve Jobs was inspired and encouraged by the omnipresent engineers employed in the nascent semiconductor industry in Palo Alto.
Happy New Year to all.
