[ROVERNET - UK] tc runs on

[Slatskars]

Thanks for the extra plug, Brian. I have been attempting to encourage some 
of the B.C. and Northern Washington group to attend. I went to the Bellevue 
ABFM and mentioned it to the group there as well as e-mailing Malcolm. I 
will be there with two MG's. Should be a great turnout. Hard to believe that 
summer is fading so rapidly.

I am going to be at the field meet in Portland this weekend:

http://www.abfm-pdx.com/2006/index.htm

So far, this is the first evidence I have seen that anyone else will be
there, so at least we have two!  Maybe we can surpass our attendance of
three Rovers at the 2005 event (out of six or seven hundred total cars).
However, in order to break that astounding record, we will probably need
to see some attendance from Seattle or BC.

Here are some pictures of the 2005 display as well as the vintage racing
that goes on all weekend:

If I remember correctly from last year, the $35 car entry fee admits you
and your passengers, so it's pretty cost effective.  Plus, you get to
drive right through the front gate and park right in the middle of the
action.

It's supposed to be in the low 90's on Saturday, so it should be a great 
day.

(end of shameless plug).

Thanks,
Brian.

up in Portland Oregon this weekend? Thank in advance. Larry
