<<< Gentleman: some demographics
Do you have a feeling for the stability of  triumph club's nation-wide? Folks
ove, economic pressures, younger and mid level folks may not have excess hobby
esources, fewer cars as some restorations go overseas, etc...  The current
ntry-level club "vintage" racing scene will follow.  The higher end will
remain
lat.

I've thought about the issue, including the items you've mentioned and the
impact they have on the hobby.
My own interest was tied to the sports cars I lusted after in my youth, but
could not afford until in was in my 40s.
I notice those generations behind me have different tastes (i.e., muscle cars,
in particular).  That impacts our marque and road racing.
But I also think one can argue that the investment value of collector cars in
general has improved in the current economy.
Mike Cook might have a feel for the 'health' of 'Trium;ph Clubs' these days.
I suspect some are doing great, others not so much.
