In spite of having one on one help from Kas available to me my first time 
at Mosport, I never did get close to getting Mosport Turn TWO right.  I was 
racing our Thunder Bolt, which is RHD, and at my weight, in a left hand, 
downhill, double apex, off camber, blind corner...I was convinced I was going to 
roll over even in no traffic.  Mosport's Turn TWO is one of road racing's 
Leaps of Faith.   

But my favorite at Mosport is coming out of Stirling Moss's corner and 
going up hill on the back straight.  A TR drive train sure shines on that part 
of the track.  I'd sure like to run Mosport again, and especially to get Bob 
Wismer up there one time.  But alas, we'll be at the Blackhawk Vintage 
Classic, where we've been racing every Father's Day week end for 19 years.  When 
vintage racing first started taking off in the late 1970s there were barely 
a half dozen events per year.  Now it seems like there are a half dozen 
events each week end.  That, dear friends, is one of our problems.  Very, very 
hard for all of them to continue to be successful.
