FoT has been such a wonderful binding agent for our group.
Keep in mind that It is (us) the users that keep it alive.
( thanks to Mark Bradakis and his 35 years of all these 1's and 0's)
Always remember that your "Friends" Lurking Here are likely greater than
anything you can find elsewhere.
This group is the real deal.
we Race.
we build and maintain awesome Triumph Racecars.
Ask Questions, tell stories, give facts, post videos, share photos and
links,
The best  members only, non-club, non-organization I've ever been a part of.
Thanks Mark for keeping it going.
