Just got back New Hampshire where we ran a rain race with 9 rigs. #4 finished 5th behind Doug Donelan and Sandy Harris, Luigi and Cristy, Bob Demetrius and Christina who flew in from the UK, Marcus and Jay?, with Bruce Richmond and Luigi's son ? right behind us. There were some drivers and passengers who do not normally race together on other peoples machines.
Sorry for the missing or miss spelt names. Saturday was dry and sunny and we found our way through the newly made over corners on 1, 1A, and 2. Sunday the locals left us in the weeds. Since last year we won here rather too easily, we expect that any teams coming to Mosport this year will be very competative.
Worthy of mention was the DNF finish of Pete Talabach's 1000 Vincent, the red and polished alloy sidecar would win awards at any show, the fact that it is being raced adds to the attraction.
Prior to the Sunday race and yes in the rain, sidecars took out several State politician's for two laps. My prospective victim was from Montana but sadly sans helmet, I had to let him go. Paul.
