Dear FOT,
I appreciate the responses I received about the above vintage race. My boy
traveled from his home in Williamsport, PA to Pittsburgh yesterday to visit us.
I printed these responses and gave them to him.
The question was why a car with a four cylinder 2.0 liter engine would be
grouped with the V-8's. The TR-3''s and TR-4's all have 2.2 liter engines. I
am
sure that his car wouldn't keep up with most of these cars.
I would think that they would want to keep most of the TR's together. Maybe
his car is considered too new, and that they use Group-8 as a catchall to
allow people to participate. I noticed that there is one other TR-7 listed as
registered in this race (Classic Motorsport magazine). Maybe he has an ex-Grou
p
44 car.

I can certainly identify with the above. For a number of years, they grouped
the EP cars with GT-1, GT-2, AS, etc.
My memory may be failing, but didn't Paul Neuman briefly race a TR-6, and
beat the Group 44 TR-7 car? Then he had someone drive around the grounds with
a
sign that said "Six is faster than seven."
