A Weekend of Mixed Emotions

This was one of the weekends Linda and I look forward to every year. It was the weekend of the VARAC Vintage Races at Mosport. This has been used as an excuse for our good friends from the USA to pay us a visit, enjoy some good racing and BBQ. This years event ended with a very sombre cast as one of vintage racings favourite drivers had his life taken at Mosport. Dino Crescentini will be sorely missed by this small fraternity of vintage racers. Our heart felt sympathies to his family and friends.

The Banana is starting to look like the car it should have been. Resplendent with its new grille and wheels, the Banana is starting to look like an MGB should look, not one of those rubber bumper monstrosities foisted on us by government regulations. Targett Mostorsports has/is supplying all the parts for it's resurrection.

Targett Motorsports is relatively new on the scene and is located in Ohio, USA. The owner, John Targett is himself a very successful MBG vintage racer. John is the sole USA Minilite Wheel Distributor ( http://www.minilitewheels.us/ ) and can be reached at jbritcars@aol.com

Wednesday it is off to Mid-Ohio for another SVRA vintage event. More parts for the Banana will be picked up and when we return home, the shell is off to get the roll cage installed.

See you at the races!
