Johnnie,
I will be leaving this Friday morning with Bob Palmer for Triumhpest from
Akron, OH in my Hybrid Durango with my Pharaoh Gold 81 TR7 in tow unless I
switch to the 71 Laurel TR6. Anyone have an opinion on which to bring? I
know I'm a whimp for towing but we hope to be there by Monday to enjoy the
West Coast to the Max. I can see the stars as I walk down Hollywood
Boulevard. Besides I am hauling nearly 400 lbs of VTR Awards, Master
Trophies,
Judging forms and reference materials. That's my excuse and I'm sticking to
it. See any of you at the Judging school Thursday @ 2:00PM?
I will bring my List grill badge. T-Shirts? Where do you get those?
Darrell
VTR Chief Judge
The TR6 gets to go to a lot of national events. The TR7 has only been to
the national VTR NATC in Albany, NY and the VTR NATC in Portland. OR. The
TR6 is of course "Hairy Chested" and the last of the true Triumph full
framed sportscars. The TR7 is a FI one and really a very nice cruising car,
but
is it a real Triumph? It is the NOS one I bought as a new car in 1996. It
currently has 8,500 miles on the clock.
