Hi, folks
I like John's idea of flights. Certainly we should plan other regional
get-togethers besides the SCCA Solo II event. Some of the Vintage events look
like fun, such as Watkins Glen. Their SVRA event is June 4th.
Just to offer another thought about logos. I recall that Triumph had an ad
back in the 70's that showed a Spitfire decked out in camouflage with the RAF
"bullseye" design on the side. This was the inspiration for the car shown on
The Roadster Factory catalog. I don't have that ad around. Does anyone else
have it in their archives? It might be worth looking at.

I have also had another idea. Since there has been talk of a central meeting
place, I think I have come up with a solution that should be agreeable to
everyone. During WW2, squadrons were made up of subgroups called "flights",
and we could do the same with our "Squadron". We could divide North America
up into three sections, kind of like eliminating a time zone, and we could
have "Flight A", "Flight B", and "Flight C". Each with their own meeting
place, and also have a yearly national meet. Let me know what you think.
