[TR] racing a tr4

[Blake J. Discher]

Hey Mark, 

Issue number 105 of "The Vintage Triumph", the six-times-a-year magazine for
VTR members, has a cover story about how Gary Horstkorta purchased and
upgraded a 1962 TR4 racer.  It's a great article.  If you're a member, you
should receive it within about one week.  They've been mailed.

Best,
Blake J. Discher, Detroit

Subject: [TR] racing a tr4

Hi List,

I am starting to prepare my tr4 for vintage racing with VARA in southern
california. It is a 62 TR4. I am at the very beginning stages. I have pulled
a spare engine from the parts car and I have dropped it off at my mechanic.
What I would like to know, is what things do other people who race view as
really important. I cannot make everything perfect, and since I am a
beginner I am more concerned with safety than having the fastest TR4 out
there. What are the most important modifications for safety? And after that
what are the must do modifications for performance?

Thanks,
Mark
