The SCCBC held their second CACC-sanctioned race weekend (
'August Heats') of this very unusual season at the Mission Raceway Park road course on August 22nd - 23rd. Our regular Vintage racers were joined by several 'special guests' on the Sunday. There were some excellent battles and everyone had a lot of fun - which is what Vintage racing is really all about. The complete results for the weekend are posted on the SCCBC web site (
here). And as always, thanks to Brent Martin for the photos (see below) of the action.
Registration for the next (and last scheduled) SCCBC / CACC race weekend (
'That's Fall Folks') is already open. Check the Schedule page on the SCCBC web site (
here) for full information.

Wire wheels and wood rimmed steering wheels were the style over the CACC September 18th - 19th race weekend at the Road Course at Mission Raceway Park. The SCCBC was honouring its most senior member, Paul Lautard who was celebrating his 99th year! Paul used to race an MG TC many years ago, so some local MG enthusiasts brought out their classics to put on display in the Paddock and to also do some parade laps.
The MG TCs. TDs and TFs are generally credited with leading the rapid growth of sports cars in post war North America. They might look pretty antiquated to modern eyes but they were a lot of fun 'back in the day' and they still are! Thanks as always to Brent Martin for the great photos (below).
