Hi Bill,

=20

It is not allowed to touch other cars in this racing group (still happen =
occasionally, but rarely).

So everybody is taking care which makes it more fun to go through =
corners with 2 or 3 cars and see how is on front :)

=20

They Healey driver managed to pass me on the grass.

I tried to gently block his line but that didn=E2=80=99t disturb him. He =
went on the green =E2=80=A6. Great driving and bravery of him :)

So much fun to race with a great bunch of people.

=20

Assen is a track with many engine failures. As soon as possible I tried =
to save the engine, keeping the revs low.

=20

Thank you for your compliment!

=20

Cheers

Chris

Chris...

AWESOME!

=20

I am particularly impressed with the close racing early on.  You pulled =
off some extremely close maneuvers without an incident.  Only the =
laundry knows how exciting such close racing can be. =20

=20

Early on, that yellow Austin Healy's straight line speed was an issue, =
but you got it handled eventually.

=20

I was also impressed with how 'gentle you are with the car's drive =
train' during the long periods when you were alone on the track.  Those =
were still some of your fastest laps, but rarely did you even touch =
6,000 rpms.

=20

Das ist GUT!

Subject: [Fot] Triumph Competition at Assen

Assen was really fun. The weather was largely great, all participants =
were in a good mood. Most cars have kept up (which, oddly enough, is =
always a problem at Assen).

After a solid 2nd place in Race 1, a failure with a pushrod damage in =
Race 2, made me start from the back in Race 3. I got help from Philippe =
Vermast. He had suffered an engine failure, but could find a replacement =
engine and shared in race 3 with me the last row.

=20

Philippe immediately took the lead in our Dynamic Duo and we made our =
way through the strong field of cars ahead.

=20

Although I was the first to cross the finish line, unfortunately I did =
an unnoticed overtaking maneuver under the Yellow Flag. So I was reset =
by 20 seconds, on P4. Of course I'm happy for the winners on the podium, =
because I had had so much fun in this catch-up race. Philippe had also =
enjoyed the furious ride. Unfortunately, he touched a tire barrier in =
the chicane and bent the steering. He did not reach the finish.
