I have enjoyed the Vanderbilt Cup site virtually since its inception. Given that the topic area that I have focused upon for some years now, American automotive contests until the end of 1920, tends to be somewhat thin on the ground for the most part, your site is certainly a treasure.
Again, my congratulations for your excellent work on keeping the legacy of the Vanderbilt Cup alive—not to mention the LIMP.
Best regards,
Don Capps
President, SAH
A wonderful award. Congrats to Howard and associates.
