A little nugget.
A Shot of the Monster V8 at Lime Rock Park, Adam Corolla purchased the car from Peter McLaughlin and then to be shipped to Nashua New Hampshire for the 2013 national Z Convention. While at Lime Rock Park there were photo shoots and interviews being conducted for Adam Corolla's film documentary "Winning" of the Great Paul Newman. Was a real pinical time of some history, the interviews were awesome specially when we all went back to the home of Bob Sharp where the film segment of Adam interviewing Bob in his office. If you haven't already look up Adam Corolla's documentary winning, it's really something to see and well put together. Bob and myself worked with Adam’s film producers for two years. We all got to see the first showing at the theater in Milton N. Y.
