Yes, a big thanks to both Tim and Mike! I appreciate your efforts,
especially because I would have been really bummed to pay full price for
such a rainy weekend. The cheaper ticket price took the sting out of it.
I was fortunate to be able to spend most of my 2 days with my good
friend, Tony, whom you met quite by chance, Tim. Guess the British
accents seem to waft around the air like sausage roll smells! Sorry I
didn't catch up with you during the day.
Kurt - that MGB was very impressive - did very well indeed. Reminded me
of the Huffaker Engineering heyday - those were very successful cars,
and I used the Huffaker preparation manual on my 1969 B and my friend's
1967 B way back in the day.
The Minis did pretty well - stayed mostly together in a bunch, which
suggests the cars and/or drivers were pretty evenly matched. Not a
surprise, as I think 3 of them were all owned and run by the MiniMania
folks.
Thanks again, Tim and Mike,
Greg Tatarian
