    Dear Stephen Page,
    Thank you for your encouragement. I am very interested in the history of the Shadow F1 and CanAm/F5000 teams and think that there is an interesting and intriguing story to be told about this innovative and enigmatic racing team. I'll check out the kindred spirit link, because I believe that Mr Springett was involved in an independent Shadow team who ran British driver Mike Wilds in the mid '70's and I want to include all aspects and details of Shadow cars. The VRL is already proving to be a great website as a potential source of contacts, photo's and information for my research into the Shadow marque. Thanks for your help so far.
    Kind Regards,
    Paul F.
