Hardy Prentice, is a unique individual who has raced a TR-3 for about
30 years. He has been going to Atlanta forever and has never come in
first, but is usually in the hunt and near the top. He nearly quit
racing when his car was demolished at Road Atlanta a few years ago.
Although he lives in California, he gets a lot of his national points
for Atlanta by usually winning the Nothern Pacific division. We
usually see him at Portland and Seattle several times a year.
Until about 4 years ago (when he bought his Aerostar) he use to flat
tow his TR-3 behind his Jag E-type. As I understand it before his
Aerostar he had only bought 2 or 3 cars in his life his Jag and his
3(s). He cut his teeth in his youth working for the Triumph factory
team.
