<div><br></div>I'm thinking it's time for the left coast. Maybe Thunderhill?
It's a hell of a track, though the surrounding facilities suck. Portland would
be great, the Columbia River Classic is the weekend before this SVRA race
(Memorial day weekend), and it's a high-track time event. Most folks are sick
of racing by the time the Monday races roll around. it also encompasses the
All British Field Meet which a lot of Triumph folks attend as well.
<div><br></div>
<div>I know I could get SOVREN to roll out the red carpet for FOT since I
helped to give this race a boost a few years ago. The Saturday at-track party
is legenday, an opportunity to get out your vintage duds, and I can commit to
a pretty cool FOT party at Casa Babcock. <br>

<br><br>Then it drove into the paddock hemorrhaging oil from every orifice

the<br>process. <br><br>Then on the start of the Group 3 race my car pulled
me down the inside<br>line to pass a bunch of guys in turn one, then I
passed the start/finish<br>line in third overall a couple times. Running way
up there in a SVRA<br>feature race is something I never thought I would do.
Then the track got<br>a little slick from rain and I backed off a bit, I
will never be a brave<br>rain driver. Too much to lose, nothing to gain.

names in our sport were there, both past and present, and<br>getting face
time with them was a real treat. <br><br>Congrats to Tony Garmey on winning
the Kastner Cup. This was the third<br>time I have seen the TR250K on track,
it was always fast. This weekend<br>it was amazing. During Kas' presentation
of the cup, he said he has not<br>seen the car go as fast since he ran it at
Sebring in '68. He then<br>issued a manufacturers recall notice, but I think
Tony is going to take<br>his chances!<br><br>Congrats to Larry Young for the
Bill Ames Award, well deserved. <br><br>The Western PA Triumph gang was
there in force, as was a big contingent<br>of New England Triumph folks. Bob
Lang brought Khartu, his TR6<br>autocrosser for the folks to enjoy. Dave
Hutchinson drove his pristine<br>Italia. If I continue to try to mention all
the special cars that came<br>out to support the event I would miss several,
I don't want to do that.<br><br>Many thanks to Jack Woehrle and the rest of
SVRA for treating us Triumph<br>folks better than we deserved. Jack was
never too far from the Triumph<br>ghetto, and made sure we got what we
needed.<br><br>So, it was a great weekend, sorry if you missed it... Where
to next<br>year?<br>_______________________________________________<br><a href="http://www.team.net/donate.html" target="_blank">http://www.team.net/donate.html</a><br><br>Fot
