I'm pleased to announce to the FOT group that Dick Stockton, FOTer from
Ocean City, NJ motored his TR-4 to 3rd overall in Group 3 and 1st in class DP
at the Watkins Glen Zippo Vintage Races late yesterday afternoon.
Dick started 4th overall on the grid and moved to 3rd on lap 4 when the #33
Datsun
Roadster of Dick Tillinger experienced some sort of problem.
The Datsun had been running in 3rd, a considerable
distance ahead of Dick's TR4, so when the Datsun slowed and exited the track
via the
access road between turns 1 and 2 Dick didn't see it. Dick happily became
aware of his 3rd overall when he was directed to the winners circle along
with
the 1st & 2nd overall cars (both 356 Porches) after the 5 lap race concluded.
Congrats to Dick and all the other Triumph racers at the Glen.
Cheers,
Bill Sohl
