"Hey Stan!

Awww..I will miss you, all the best for recovery!
Yes, I am doing every VSCDA event and the SVRA events at Mid-Ohio and Road America, along with CVAR in the fall!
I really enjoyed racing and hanging out with you last year!
Wait til you…"

"The best thing I did to my Bugeye was to add a Taylor-Race box! Indestructable!"

"Gary,
I will look for you at Hallett! I skipped RA to keep the wife happy and decided to tow out to OK for this event! Looks like a great track!

"Hello Tom,

I also race a 1959 Bugeye Sprite and I am the 4th owner/driver. I race in the midwest with VSCDA and run an"Era Correct" 948 that is pretty quick. Hope to see more of your car."

"Stephen,

Nice site you have created. I notice you race with CVAR. I am going to tow 10 hours out to Hallett to race the Bugeye in October, will you be racing there as well?

Cheers,

Doug Bruce"

  • I have a MkIII Elva Sports Racer under restoration that is going to eat up some time. I should make it to Grattan to race.
  • Hi Doug

    It took me a while to realize it is you.

    Will you be at Gingerman this year?

    I will be there, but not be racing since I am recovering from Hip Surgery.
  • Great. You will really like HMRC. It's a great track for our small cars. Also, it has a nice atmosphere. Family owned and run. Feels like you are back in the '60's. Some of us dress in vintage attire for the sat. night dinner/party, so bring youre peace madalion or tweed jacket.

  • A very good friend of mine is restoring his old IMSA Bugeye sprite racer. Didn't make it to Mid-Ohio this year but hoping for 2009. Look forward to meeting you.

  • Hi Doug
    Hallett is one of my favorite events.
    It's well worth the tow.
    Sadly, I may have to be on business and away during that weekend.
    I hope that trip gets cancelled and I get to meet you.
    All the best -Stephen
  • Doug,

    Thanks for the note. I have been having fun with the Bugeye. The Pennsylvania Hillclimb Association (www.pahillclimb.org) represents several SCCA regions and has an excellent grasp on time trial and hillclimb events. I may go wheel to wheel one of these days, probably with the VRG.

    I am an ex-Chicogoan. In my youth I crewed for MWCSCC cars at Blackhawk Farms and Milwaukee. I am glad they reopened Milwaukee.

    Good luck with the Bugeye. I will keep in touch.

    Tom
  • Dear Richard
