would like to nominate a man for FoT who is near and dear to me. Chuck McGu=
ire was a vintage racer before there was such a thing. He attended SCCA dri=
ver school in 1964 and started racing right away, taking a TR3A to the trac=
k with a Plymouth station wagon with the family and a trailer en tow. He ha=
s raced famous Ghost Tracks like Greenwood Roadway and even has a few troph=
ies and podium finishes at various tracks around the USA. He was the winner=
of the Badger 200 at Road America in 1967? (I have seen the undated trophy=
) (Any info on this would be appreciated). Budget and family cut his racing=
career short, as it has done to others time and time again.=A0=0A=0AChuck =
lives right up the street from me where he has built 6 TR3As ranging from 1=
957-1960. All of his children now own one, including an award winning 1960 =
TR3A that he shipped to Australia for his daughter Denise as well as a room=
full of car show awards. He is an absolute genius with Triumphs, earning h=
im the name "Mr.Triumph" by his peers. I had a wonderful opportunity to spe=
nd the duration of the Kastner Cup weekend festivities with him and his lov=
ely wife Charlotte. He has helped me numerous times with my Spitfire (makin=

s very surprised by the amount of people this weekend who knew him or of hi=
m. He is the epitome of a Friend of Triumph. An absolute gentleman racer un=
