My apologies for being MIA over the last few years, it's not for a lack of interest or anything of the sort.

In mid-2019, I needed to make some pretty big life decisions, one of which involved relocating to Washington state (Portland/Vancouver area) from the Bay Area (San Jose, California). That move involved acquiring a piece of property that not only met my needs at the time, but would allow me to do many more things in the future... things that involve these very cars. Anyhow, COVID happened and next thing you know it's 2023. Over the last two years I've been playing catch up on my property so cars and racing has been put on hold. The good news is that I'm in the process of building my next shop, all 12,000 sq/ft which will be the home base for my race cars and car collection. The county has been a nightmare, so what was supposed to be a relatively quick process has turned into multi-year effort and will likely span another 3-5yrs before it's finished. I'm happy to share the build progress on that (sort of car/race car related).

Back to the cars. As Ryan stated, the cars are still of course in my possession and are safe and secure. Sadly I haven't raced the yellow Speedvision car since mid-2017 and the Belgian Procar/24hr Spa car since the Type R Expo in late 2018. The other race car, #717, is still in several pieces and will be a longer term project. Same with two other factory "body in white" chassis that I have stored away.

And while I haven't "tracked" the race cars recently, I do regularly start them up, run them on the dyno and ensure everything is being preserved accordingly.

Nice to hear an update.
Good luck with all the property plans. They sound great!
