List -
   The TR5 sitting outside the Coventry Inn was, as Phillip Barnes suggested,
owned by 'The Guv'ner', Charles Runyan.  This was
 my second trip to the TRF Summer Party and I again had a good time.  This was
the second weekend in a row that I put almost
900 miles on the TR6.

Highlights:  TR6s!! Lots of 'em!  There were 150 at the Drive In Saturday night
and even more at the show on Sunday.
                        Autocross - A local club did a fine job with a small
parking lot at the local high school - I won the stock TR6 class!
                                                (my son saw the chalice-like
trophy and asked if it was the Holy Grail of Triumphs)
                                             - A TR6 won FTD! (Congratulations
to Richard Good (of Good Parts fame)).
                        Drag Racing - John Rossi (of this very list) was the
class winner in his TR6

Lowlights:  A TVR owner took his car home in many, many pieces after crashing
HARD at the drag strip on Friday.
