Its an important piece of Triumph history. Who remembers when GM complained to 
the SCCA about being thrashed by this type of car. Cheers Richard North

I would like to nominate Curt Johnston for membership. Curt is a long time 
Triumph owner, lives in the San Francisco area and has found A Huffaker TR8 
convertible that is now being restored at the Huffaker garages. Here are a few 
words from Curt. 



People will be interested to learn that we will have both No. 11 cars driven by 
Lee Mueller at Monterey Car Week in August later this year (Carmel By The Sea 
Concours on the Avenue). These are the black TR7 and 8 convertibles. Lee also 
drove the silver TR7. In 2019, both cars should be at the Rolex Monterey 
Motorsports Reunion. I wanted to wait a year on the historic races, so I could 
get enough experience to drive it myself. Its going to be really cool to see a 
couple of wedges at these events, and hopefully folks outside the wedge 
community will understand why we like these cars so much 



Pictures of his car are here

He has mentioned that he would like to race at a future Kastner cup event. 



Can I get a second for Curt? 



Thanks
