<< Dear Folks:
I appreciate the invitation, and I would really like to bring the Group
44 TR-6, but bear in mind that even 25 years ago it ran with some pretty
agressive cantilever tires (10" footprint), trick gears, acid dipped,
Mercedes halfshafts, and all the other Group 44 tricks that Bob T. could
get by the SCCA. It still has all these goodies and will get around
Lime Rock at 1:00 or Savannah in a 1:21, so this may not be a fair car
in relationship to other TR-6's. Let's face it, the car is a ringer,
but it is a 1972 ringer, not a 1998 ringer. Please advise if you still
want it. Bill Warner >>
Bill,
Of course we want it and you. We are not trying to establish a level field. We
want cars that represent faithfully the products of these two companies in
their various states of racing trim. We will come up with a scoring system
that awards points for more than winning racetrack performance. If you think
you can finish first in the race, fine, do it. I think you will have
competition.
See you at Mid-Ohio.
Jack Woehrle
