Hi Jim...
I took the liberty to cc the triumphs list on the topic. Afterall, it is
apropos to Triumphs afficianados.

That is correct. Three days (Fri., Sat., Sun.) from 1:30 PM till about
6:00 PM.

Why yes I do! According to the schedule, the E Prod race is at 4:10 PM
today, Friday, 6-Oct-2000. There are three TR6's in the field, Sam
Halkias, Dave Wingett and Mark Gerdes. Gerdes posted no times, so it's
safe to assume that he's not qualified for the event. Don't take that
wrong way. ;-)

All the "big TR's" as well as GT6 would be in EP. All the "little" TR's
would be in FP (1500's with single 1.5" carb) or GP (1296's and 1047's).
There is, of course, the off chance that a TR6 could show up in GT3 but
other than that most of your national level SCCA presence for Triumphs is
in the "Production" classes.
As luck would have it, the G Prod race is Sunday at 3:20 PM. I hope the
weather forcast is wrong, because there's actually a chance that snow
will fly in Mansfield, OH on Sunday (as well as other parts of the
Northeast). This will slow the field down some, but I'd love to see a
clear day for this race, because Steve Sargis has a "wicked fast"
Spitfire (and sits on the pole position) and Kevin Allen who is no
slouch. Should be a good race this year, and past years' races have been
exciting from the green flag to the checkered flag.
