Subject: [Fot] Nomination Chuck McGuire
I would like to nominate a man for FoT who is near and dear to me. Chuck
McGuire was a vintage racer before there was such a thing. He attended SCCA
driver school in 1964 and started racing right away, taking a TR3A to the
track with a Plymouth station wagon with the family and a trailer en tow. He
has raced famous Ghost Tracks like Greenwood Roadway and even has a few
trophies and podium finishes at various tracks around the USA. He was the
winner of the Badger 200 at Road America in 1967? (I have seen the undated
trophy) (Any info on this would be appreciated). Budget and family cut his
racing career short, as it has done to others time and time again.
Chuck lives right up the street from me where he has built 6 TR3As ranging
from 1957-1960. All of his children now own one, including an award winning
1960 TR3A that he shipped to Australia for his daughter Denise as well as a
room full of car show awards. He is an absolute genius with Triumphs,
earning him the name "Mr.Triumph" by his peers. I had a wonderful
opportunity to spend the duration of the Kastner Cup weekend festivities
with him and his lovely wife Charlotte. He has helped me numerous times with
my Spitfire (making me do the work with his guidance) and also the Drive
Away Cancer Iowa TR4A. I accredit the many miles I have put on both cars to
his expertise. I was very surprised by the amount of people this weekend who
knew him or of him. He is the epitome of a Friend of Triumph. An absolute
gentleman racer until his last breath. He has been featured in magazines and
newsletters throughout his years. He has never strayed from his love for
TR3s. He is a senior member of our local British Car Club and is always
there to help. He is a retired Des Moines Fire Dept mechanic, EMT, and fire
fighter.
We could all learn something from gentleman like him, and I am proud to say
that I have. I call him a friend and confidant. Can I get a second?
His contact info:
Chuck and Charlotte McGuire
