I've got a beautiful block with internal modified ventilation.... how about 
that?

he, we can't beat ourselves up too much... my friend Lou Merchant built a 
beautiful MGA for her daughter to run...three weekends and a block 'ventilated' 
on both side with holes large enough to fit a fist through... so.. it's not all 
Triumphs!!

there... Merry Christmas ya'll!

Bobby

What I think is this. Burt is trying to find humor in the fact that we 
Triumph racers suffer a disproportional amount of DNF's compared to other 
marques. While there may be some truth to this, I do not believe 
perpetuating this thought in Burt's book does us any favors.

We have lost some amazing wrenches recently, Jimmy Coan and Lankee F. My 
vote is we do something for them.

Or we do a collage of Kastner Cup winners and cars.

Or anything but a picture of a ventilated block, especially mine!
