Brian,
That puts the autocross im direct conflict with the car show part of
Triumphest. I assume that the solo event is being held on
Saturday because of an even t at the stadium on Sunday and it could not be
changed. Now you really give ma a dilemma having to decide
if I want to participate in the show (with Triumph folks) or the autocross
(with SCCA folks)!!!
