I had the 6th fastest lap on Thursday and 8th on Friday. Started 8th for the qualifying race and finished 10th. I had many really powerful cars behind me for the race and a couple got by right after the green flag waved, a Aston Martin DB4 and an all aluminum body Healey 3000 Sebring. Shortly after, a Porsche Speedster and Ferrari 250 SWB got by. The Ferrari pulled ahead of this group and I kept close behind the others for the remainder of the race. </p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">I'll get the Thursday practice and qualifying race posted soon. There was a lot of action in those sessions.</p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">This is the 16th event in my "3/4 race/street prepared" TR3. It has finished every lap of all 16 events. I have only performed basic service and maintenance. It has a Hepolite 87mm big bore kit that was in it when I found it ten years ago and it last ran in 1975 before then. I do hope to put a real race engine together soon. I know that I'm stretching it a bit now.</p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">Please enjoy the attached video.</p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">Best, Dave Hogye</p><p style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: helvetica, arial, sans-serif; color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K3_kMsboim4&t=12s</p></body></html>
