    I'll dig through my pics and see if i have any more recent ones


    The owner is a friend of mine and is toying with the idea of parting with it. I'm kinda sad it might be for sale :(

    I was on pit lane at the Columbus 500 with passes from Budweiser the day Holbert died.

    I don't remember the car, but it certainly had a great 1983: Eight 1st's and one second place.

    It seems to be a one-of car. Wouldn't a Porsche 917 be worth more?

    Whoa! Maybe it was his dad Bob you saw in 2009.

    Interesting that when I googled "Holbert who died leaving the columbus 500", this F-Chat thread came up first.
