Pat McDowell
Pat hails from the San Francisco Bay Area and is a car buff from way back.
Since the mid 1970’s, he has owned a series of Ferraris including a
1972 246 GTS with “Chairs and Flares,” a 1976 carberated 308
GTB, a 1997 Testarossa, a 1995 F355 GTS, and a 1998 550 Maranello. In 1996,
Pat was co-driver of a 1957 Reventlow Scarabin the Mille Miglia. From
1995 to 2000, he spent 50 days a year in a formula race car, driving primarily
in the Russell Racing Series at Sears Point and other California tracks.
He has raced in both amateur and professional series.
Terry O'Reilly
Terry O’Reilly was born and raised in England, not far from Brands
Hatch. He grew up idolizing Mike Hawthorne, Peter Collins and Duncan Hamilton.
Some say that while his driving may not quite resemble these legends, his
training regime has always leaned towards that of ‘53 Le Mans winner
Hamilton. Playing Rugby for the University of California and the Old Blues
RFC kept him off the race tracks as a young man. However, the wide open roads
across the West
allowed many Cannonball-like runs in such groups as the Turismos Visitadores
and Beyond The West. Recently he has participated in more formal Rallies,
including several Ferrari Challenge and Copperstate Rallies. In 2006, he
took TBR’s Lincoln
Coupe on the California Mille.
