    I once had a nice chat with Hobbs on the Seattle waterfront. We were there to witness the end of the Great Race, the cross-country road rally for vintage cars, I as a spectator and he as a TV reporter. Before the cars arrived, he had some spare time. A very charming chap!

    Is there a book tour schedule anywhere for Hobbs?

    As the old joke goes, a guy asks David Hobbs for an autograph.

    Hobbs obliges.

    Guy says, "This is great, I always wanted Brian Redman's autograph!".

    Ouch. :confused:

    Many moons ago, at a Trenton ChampCar race, young me ran up and asked Mario for an autograph.

    Ooooopppsss. It was Aldo. :oops:

    (That doesn't count for demerits tho', does it?:rolleyes:)

    Well, that's okay, since they are identical twins...

    'Can't slip anything past you, eh? :p
    Methinks I learned real quick right then and there that they were truly identical (I knew they were twins. I was about 12 and was devouring all I could find about racing already), but didn't know the man standing there was not Mario, I just assumed in my excitement...) :)
