Title: SVRA at the Glen Sept. 8-11
Post by: oldtransamdriver on August 30, 2016, 08:21:00 PM

There will be a 50th T/A celebration at the Glen, and I plan to be there.
You can stop by and say hello either at the Bobby Brown pit (former Can-Am racer),
and now vintage racing,  who also raced a 67 camaro at 2 T/A events in 67  You might
find me also at the Chad Raynal operation, who is looking after several HTA cars.

Thank you very much for posting that, interesting indeed.



On a historical note: I had no clue there was ~200 T/A cars involved from '66-'72, that is far more than I would have guessed. Wonder how many are left to be discovered?

I too, enjoyed the Glen weekend with the HTA cars.  Was very nostalgic for me
I was the guest of Can-Am racer Bobby Brown who was there vintage racing with a Brabham and
his re-acquired Chevron.

He told me that the 67 camaro he raced in 67 was built inhouse at his Chev dealership with some help
from Mark Donohue.

I heard that the HTA gang might go to Mid-Ohio in 2017?
