Of course you know Robert (Bob) Johns as the Triumph Factory Driver who drove
the 12 Hours of Sebring with Mordy Dunst's father-in-law, Mike Rothschild.
It turns out that Des Moines' Chuck McGuire was in Germany at about the same
time as Bob. Chuck tells of a run on the Autobahn with a 190SL, with his TR3
outrunning the 190SL going up the hills and the 190SL catching him on the
downside.
Chuck returned from Germany with his TR3 to race it at GREENWOOD in the 60s.
Chuck and his wife are going to join us in the FOT Paddock....with the same
TR3. You want to be in the Paddock when these two meet and tell stories? I
think so.
Chuck has restored four TR3s, one for each of his children. At 75 he is
stilling chasing cars down America's Autobahn.
Robert and Chuck are on our VIP List.
Welcome them!
