Re: Ed Lowther About 10 yrs. ago I was at a MidOhio Vintage race . It was a Thursday practice day, a mix of cars on the track.After the session, I walked thru the paddock, looking at cars. There was a mid-engine Genie/ smallblock Ford ( forerunner of the Can Am cars). I stopped to look at it in detail, the owner asked if I had seen one before. I remarked that it looked like Ed Lowther's old car that he raced before the Cobra. The guy jumped out of his chair and said " How do you know that !" I explained that Ed was my neighbor and I spent time in his garage !By the way, Ed won 2 Championships in the Genie, which had been driven by Dan Gurney and Pedro Rodriguez earlier in its life !
