Several friends of mine were competing at Mosport this weekend, among them a TR6, a Porsche 914, a Toyota Starlet a couple of Volvos, and two Porsche 944s.
Saturday was damp so laptimes about 8 seconds slower for most people, but there was some excellent racing on Sunday, even though the cool track was still a couple of seconds off.
The guy in the TR6 defeated his rival, a Fiat that had some gearbox problems, but they were pretty closely matched and had a good battle.
There was also terrific racing between a blue mini and immaculate red Spridget, both car lapping around 1:43, which is really quick! (Another guy I know did 1:45 in a Mallock, to give a reference point.) Plenty of MGBs and a TVR with a severe misfire which needs some sorting out.
My neighbour in the Toyota was pleased to finish without problems and is getting used to his new rear suspension, but GT70 includes budget racers like him, and very fast cars like Corvettes and a pair of BMW M1s, so he got lapped a couple of times! The Starlet has no interior and plastic windows so is pretty noisy, even with ear plugs and a helmet, and when the M1's blasted by on the straight he said the whole car vibrated and shook. He was doing about 100mph, they went by about a foot from his door, nose to tail, at maybe 170mph. Quite an experience!
