[Fot] FOT Hallett racing video

[kknight at klaenv.com]

Cheater Weber’s?  Where did the Almighty write on stone that no one can race in vintage with a Weber carburetor?  Walk through any pit at a vintage race event and see a significant % of cars, of all makes, with these installed.  In our club you bump up a category with Weber’s.  In 2022 it would be impossible to field a car with ALL Triumph parts inside the engine or transmission.  One of the FOT members just let everyone know about new and updated critical parts for the transmission.  I sure don’t consider those to be cheater parts.  I recall Kas telling stories about total engine rebuilds after every bloody race with stock TR parts.  You know, back in the day when he had a key to stock room of every part that Triumph supplied and it was his full time job to field a car.  Modern parts and oil keep our vintage cars on the track for seasons between rebuilds.  If it is not against the rules in the club you race in, it is not cheating.  Ken

Great start by Frymark!

And too bad the cheater Webber’s let him down.

More proof that the racing Gods look down on non Triumph parts.

Good drive Bob.

Looked like fun.

It was great fun having all the Triumphs together. Love Hallet, such a great track for our cars. Can’t wait to do it again.

CVAR allowed the D Production Triumphs to join in with the Group 2 Production cars for the race weekend at Hallett. DP normally runs in Group 7 with C Prod and B Sedan, but Groups 1 and 7 were combined for Hallett and the Group 2 racers agreed to let us run with them. We fit in well. Here is a youtube link to the Sunday morning race.
