I won't name the driver because it wouldn't be fair. And can anyone else who figures it out also not name him please. He had already pointed out to me that he hadn't even thought about his racing days for many years and he is now 71. What he said of Sebring in 1969 was "I also remember that race as Fon DePortigo raced in it and I got up as far as fourth in the final heat when I ran out of gas".
The memory does play horrible tricks on you as you get older. Two events that happened years apart can seem to have happened at the same time. It just shows the care you have to take when using anyone's recollections in your research.
