HMSA lists an event for Leguna Seca 28-29 September. Questions: What FoT will attend? Who plans to race? Opinions of this event? In the event that a few of us can pull together a Senior Citizens Tour
As you are probably aware, HMSA is the same group that puts on the annual races that coincide with Pebble Beach. They attract an excellent assorment of well prepared racecars. I love going to their
Hey, Earle's done a great job targeting an elite group of race car I could just see it! Boyoboy! "The meticulously restore Mille Miglia winning Ferrari"... Totally dusted by Joe or Jack's TR4s! MAN!
Sometime near to that happen about ten years ago. A TR3A (red with white trim around the mouth) was in one of the races. The driver and car provided a very impressive drive amongst a very classy fei

A bunch of us West coasters are going to the Vintage SCCA race at Laguna Seca October 26-27. Is that too late to fit into your schedule? To date, Paul, Mordy, Steve, Alan, Jerry, Vince, myself and o
Guyszzzzzzzzzzz. Ugh, Watching a NASCAR Triumph beat up on an old Ferrari has the same appeal as watching a match up of Mike Tyson beating on an aging Ali. If Triumphs had "had it", They'd of won the
Well, I won't get into the age differences (I'm old enough to complain about any mention of age discrimination...), but the above is _funny_! Wanna see it happen, too, and photograph the face of the
Hmmm...Not that I remember it, because I'm too young - but: I have read of some success at Le Mans, European rallies, several dozen SCCA production championships - right up to the 1990's If Triumph h
Yup, that's pretty much how I think about it. Peyote was a mid- to back-of-the pack car in it's day. I bet it handled like crap until Pat Starr restored it. And I bet it didn't make many ponies eithe
Oh, and the September rage is not HMSA--it's the San Francisco SCCA, and they'll take about anything. For that matter, you'll see all kinds of cars at the HMSA races too--it's the General Racing meet
