[Fot] FOT Appearance @ WATKINS GLEN 2008 SEPTEMBER

RE: [Fot] FOT Appearance @ WATKINS GLEN 2008 SEPTEMBERBert Smeets just
bought it a couple of years ago and tried to get it ready for LeMans vintage
2007 race, but that didn't happen as far as I know. The following link gives
a bit of background on him.

Bert owns several factory built vintage TR7V8 rally cars and enters rallies
regularly competing against modern machinery...and doing well too!

The Le Mans car was written up recently in Classics Monthly magazine. Car
has been completely stripped, with rebuilt power train including having the
twin turbo engine rebuilt by John Eales.

Yikes, who owns that? I wonder if it's for sale?

The owner of the Canadian Group 44 type TR8 (#42) will likely attend as
well, for a rematch of races with #44 back in the day.
