Subject: Re: [Fot] Our weekend at the Glen
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.=20
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.=20

think.
We shared some special moments remembering uncle jack.
Many of us were able to put faces with familiar names. Before I just
knew the names. Now I have faces in my brain so I will forget all =
your
names. Sorry, that's just how it works.
My car rose to the occasion. First, somehow it became the poster =

for the event, landing on the front page of the local daily =
newspaper on
Saturday.=20
Then it drove into the paddock hemorrhaging oil from every orifice =
after
the All Triumph Race, but I achieved a few lofty personal goals in =
the
process.=20
Then on the start of the Group 3 race my car pulled me down the =
inside
line to pass a bunch of guys in turn one, then I passed the =
start/finish
line in third overall a couple times. Running way up there in a SVRA
feature race is something I never thought I would do. Then the track =
got
a little slick from rain and I backed off a bit, I will never be a =
brave
rain driver. Too much to lose, nothing to gain. Still finished well, =
no
complaints there.
There was less attrition than I expected over the course of the =
weekend,
at least until Sunday. It was nice to spend time with our friends
sitting on chairs with a beer in hand, not under cars requesting
wrenches and sockets.=20
Many big names in our sport were there, both past and present, and
getting face time with them was a real treat.=20
Congrats to Tony Garmey on winning the Kastner Cup. This was the =
third
time I have seen the TR250K on track, it was always fast. This =
weekend
it was amazing. During Kas' presentation of the cup, he said he has =
not
seen the car go as fast since he ran it at Sebring in '68. He then
issued a manufacturers recall notice, but I think Tony is going to =
take
his chances!
Congrats to Larry Young for the Bill Ames Award, well deserved.=20
The Western PA Triumph gang was there in force, as was a big =
contingent
of New England Triumph folks. Bob Lang brought Khartu, his TR6
autocrosser for the folks to enjoy. Dave Hutchinson drove his =
pristine
Italia. If I continue to try to mention all the special cars that =
came
out to support the event I would miss several, I don't want to do =
that.
Many thanks to Jack Woehrle and the rest of SVRA for treating us =
Triumph
folks better than we deserved. Jack was never too far from the =
Triumph
ghetto, and made sure we got what we needed.
So, it was a great weekend, sorry if you missed it... Where to next
year?
