That Looong Race 2016   
    Well, once again the Alpine winds of the Midwest threaten to start
their blow about this time of year.   We have one last chance to prove
our Triumph worthiness among a field of cars that also think their
Marque is the greatest production car of its time.   This event is
historically rich in Triumph excellence and defeat.   The 46th running
should tell a Triumph tale of our region.   Entry list for the dual 25
lap races (100 miles total) is somewhat low on the open book end...  
For the vintage race, only Sean Alexander (TR4), myself (GT6+) and
newcomer Alex Amys (GT6+) are entered.   And my bet is already on my
faithful teammate Brian Garcia in his 1967 Plymouth Baracuda .   Then
there is Glade Snodgrass racing his hit or miss Spitfire in FP racing
the 50 lapper.   Scott Barr will be out in his Spec Racer Ford.   I
was surprised to see no Tony Drews signed up to play.   but Rumor has
it that another big man won't be a no show.   Bill Detinger is flying
in from sin city just to see our show.   Of course it'd really more
about his mini Beady Eyed loved ones going trick or treating and
hitting the track for the big wheel race.   I suppose its anyone's
game.   Sean has been strong and consistent all year, I'm running a
back up motor in my yellow car; and the young Alex Amys has built a
real looker of a GT6.   Alex came out to Road America this fall and it
was a real treat to see his fresh GT6.   He and his dad David have
done a wonderful job so far,   Their spectacular white #84 GT6; gets a
high grade cosmetically and is top notch from an engineering
standpoint.   I hope to show them what a little patina is worth.   As
for Sean, I'm not sure if my old #27 has enough meat on it's bones to
take the top.   Anyway, if you are into Triumphs; can't exactly skip a
flat stone in the ocean, and are not racing this weekend yourself...  
It seems the only reasonable that you head to Blackhawk Farms right
now.   Beacause=   A) My awesome daughter Naomi is going for a "3
peat" win in the big wheel race.   B) Damndinger rented a garage just
to host a wine and cheese party.   C) Some goon is racing a Plymouth
Barracuda.   D) Scott Barr is bringing a Magnesium wheel to "White
Light" burn on the Friendly Ghost Racing Bon Fire.   (yes this is the
race where we get really crazy and burn truckloads of wood and stuffed
animals and light up the sky burning all kinds of nutty melting shit).
  E) The legendary Glade Snodgrass will be racing a spitfire that
could explode at any minute.   F) Joe Alexander needs to measure the
size of your valve cover for his next Gasket Innovation.   G) Perhaps
a young and Fresh GT6 builder gets corrupted by a bunch of Mad GT6
hooligans in turn 2. (Yes David and Alex that is an invitation to
paddock near us in the scary side of the track; out in the woods by
turn 2) if you dare.   H) We party and burn stuff on Saturday... and
Race on Sunday.   I) What happens at the Looong Race stays at the
Looong Race.   X) Yep, this is the big one.   
   If you can't make it, just look up into the Midwestern sky at about
8 pm central time on Saturday night. The orange light you see is our
epic campfire... a symbol of Triumphs Burning everywhere.   Godspeed.
