The red Tiger belongs to Don Saueressig. All the Tigers came through the
event in good shape. Tom Sakai got as high as 7th place before dropping back to a
9th place finish.
John Morton had a previous commitment so 78 year old Scooter Patrick ended a
25 year hiatus from racing to drive our SCF Tiger. Back in the day, Scooter
owned a car dealership that carried Rootes vehicles. He told us he could
sell every Tiger he could get his hands on. His problem was that in order
to get a Tiger he'd also have to take a certain number of Alpines and Imps
which didn't sell themselves like a Tiger did.
And thanks to Bob Josten for lending us the racing seat Scooter used. (Our
usual seat was a bit too tight for Scooter's taste.)
