..Man I can't believe how long ago that was....Never met James Hunt but I did get to meet Niki Lauda at a test at Brands Hatch when the Brabham team were on the way down to Monaco for the GP...There can't have been more than 30 or forty people that knew that they were going to be there that day...it was AWESOME!!
