[Fot] NOMINATIONS ANDY PACKARD & CREGG COWAN (West Coast)

[davehogye]

I'll add a second to the nomination of Andy and Cregg. They are very active with our Triumph Travelers Sports Car Club and dedicated to all things Triumph related. They will be an asset to the FoT. Cregg has a really sweet TR6 and Andy has an amazing TR250 which he restored to perfection with many performance mods. They will both love being connected to this group. Thanks for nominating them, Joe.

Please welcome Andy and Cregg to the FOT with "seconds" for both of them. 

They are preparing a TR4 for endurance racing on the west coast. Of course 
they will need our support in this effort. 

Cregg is very familiar to me and you may have met him when we were all 
together at the Laguna Seca Kastner Cup. Andy Packard is also familiar to me 
and a fellow VTR member.

It's endurance racing, so there are a minimum of four drivers for weekend 
driving of about eight hours each Saturday and Sunday. Cregg and I are the 
most experienced drivers and John is more technical, although all of us are 
very mechanical and have restored at least one of our own cars. I have a 
TR250 with Ratco frame and triple webers among other upgrades. It looks stock 
and drives fast winning FTD at two VTR events and most Triumphest autocrosses. 
Cregg has two TR6's, a driver and one in restoration. John has restored a 
Spitfire with a rotary engine and is working on a TR4 resto right now. 
If you want to just add one person to the FOT group, I would make it Cregg, 
but I would also like to be in on the group too.

Hi Joe: 
Cregg Cowan, John Sisler and I are putting a TR4 Lemons race car together here 
in the Bay Area. We're hoping to tap into some of the race prep knowledge of 
the FOT, but it looks like we need your permission to access the Facebook 
group. 
One primary issue we have is identifying the correct size racing seat options 
for a TR4. We're trying to schedule the roll cage construction and having the 
seat in place will help insure we have the correct clearances for our tallest 
drivers. 

Any assistance you can provide in helping us connect with your group would be 
appreciated.
