Jack Smith, an Atlanta area SCCA IT racer is reported to have run a Jensen Healey in IT trim around 1997 or 1998. Anyone heard of this guy, know him, or know how to contact him? Or, did anyone ever see the car run or have some times on it? I'd always heard rumors of the car but have never met anyone who has seen it or seen it run. Any info would be much appreciated. Thanks,

I think the car was built by Robinson Racing.

I did see it but run, but... either the car or the driver was not up to speed.

I only remember seeing it at the track once. So... He may have gone HSR or Prod soon after.

Good Luck! I hope to see yours at CMP.

Well, just about anything. I'd like to know how the car did, why it didn't race more than it did, is it race worthy now, what pitfalls are in store for a JH in IT, basica setup, things to avoid - you name it, I'd like to know it! Basically I'd love to talk to the fellow and just ask him a bunch of questions about the JH. Does he still plan to race his? Many questions. Thanks much,

Ron
