Hi,
My name is Rick Haynes and I am looking for someone again.
He is Ray Gardner and he used to write articles for some slot car magazines back in the late '60s. Anybody know him or what may have happened to him
Thanks,
Rick

Ray actually published an autobiography. I don't have one, but I have seen it. I remember him calling me in Connecticut from Georgia, spending 30 minutes telling me how he set up his flexi GTP car (back when long distance was a toll call!). I thanked him profusely, but then a week later a complete race winning RTR showed up in my mailbox! Quite a guy.
