I can add that I was at the pre-Historics last Saturday for the qualifying
race. The Tiger was strongly in the lead of ALL Cobras and Mustangs -
except for the Daytona Cobra and I think a Ferrari. It was so cool to
watch. Unfortunately, he must have had a run in with some dirt as he
dropped about 5 places on the next to last lap. But, it was so cool to see
it doing so well, lap after lap with the Cobras on its tail.

That's sweet! Wish I could have seen it. I'm heading to Pebble Beach on Friday, but couldn't get out of work to see the races. My old man has a 1937 AC 16/80 at the Concours. If the Ace is the father of the Cobra, then the 16/80 is the grand-daddy. Maybe great grand-daddy!

Well Jay, you're right about how the white (#74 Sports Car Forum) Tiger
dropped 5 places. It went into the dirt at the start of the main straight
when the brakes decided to take a short vacation.(Not their last.) We ended
that race in 9th.

On Sunday's race in the Pre Historics we placed 4th. The black Hollywood
Tiger ended up in 10th followed by Dave Lipski's red Tiger in 16th.

The same 3 Tigers ran in the Monterey Historics this weekend. The weather
was perfect and just a bit warmer than the previous weekend.

As usual, John Morton did a spectacular job driving our #74 Tiger. He
managed to grid the car 3rd (a bit down from last year's "Pole" due to much
stronger competition). He finished this year's Historics in 5th despite
having serious brake problems. (By the way, we never would have made it to
the grid if Dan Walters had not been able to make an incredibly quick
emergency change of both brake rotors shortly before race time. Thanks Dan!)

Dave Lipski's red Tiger (I believe running a real 260) gridded 33rd but
worked up to finish 25th.

Due to wheel problems, Dave Stone's HSC Tiger did not run during the
qualification session. Since the race grid is determined by lap times during
qualification, Dave had to start at the back of the field. This officially
placed him 35th. Unfortunately a blown tire put him out of the race after
only two laps.

Our pits were "swarmed" all weekend. I've never seen anything like it.
Notables included Ron Dykes, Pete Brock, Phil Remington, Kerry Agapiou
(Shelby American mechanic), Dennis Swan (Hollywood Sports Cars mechanic who
worked on the HSC Tiger for Doanne). Tiger road racers who helped out over
the weekend included Dan Walters, Tom Sakai, Steve Sorensen and Al Denson.
And (except for a "United" or a "Suni"winking smiley I've never seen so many Tiger owners
at one event. Thanks to all for your support and kind words.

Hello All,
I would like to add that Dave lost pressure in a
front
tire on Saturdays warmup then we broke two rockers
during the official race. Dave did start in last
place
but reeled in 6 cars in just a couple of laps. We now
know the replacement interval for production
rockers!!

Other notable happenings. Terry Curry talked Pete
Chapouris into bringing the Doane Spencer 32 roadster
and the other 32 that Doane started to build for
Daryl
Brunn up to our pit on Saturday afternoon. We had
like
50 to 100 people and 4 magazines shooting the cars
and
Dale and I got to go over the details of each car
with
Pete and his two technicians. It was unbelieveabe!!!!
Thanks to Terry Curry for making it happen! I owe you
a beer or two
Bill
