Triumph Spitfire Eau Claire CVSCC Autocross Racing
This was my fastest run of the day at 49.4sec. I finished first place in vintage class. It was 92 degrees outside. My main competitor is the lime colored Porsche 914 that is turbocharged and intercooled that you can see in the lineup at the end of the video.
Triumph Spitfire Engine Swap TimeLapse
We have never done a complete engine and transmission swap from start to finish in one day, it has always been spread out over a few days. The upcoming race is 24 hours straight so we don't have the luxury of taking our time during the night getting it ready for the next day. Murphy set in, there were differences in the engines. The water pump was different so we needed larger fan belts, different thermostat housing, and we had to convert to an electrical water temp gauge. Good thing we tried this at home and not at the track during the race. The GoPro camera ran out of batteries about 30 minutes before the engine fired. Looks hilarious to me, hope you enjoy it.

A 160 Mile Triumph Spitfire 1500 reaches a record £19,000 at auction!
Here is the extract from the auction catalogue:
1981 Triumph Spitfire
.
Lot 68
Won as a raffle prize at a charity dinner in 1981 by the vendors Father this then new and unregistered Spitfire 1500 was promptly decommissioned and liberally waxoyled by Clarendon Cars NW1 and placed into a container on the vendors premises and stored until the beginning of October 2012! The car has covered just 161 delivery miles from new and remains unregistered. Apart from oil and fluids, which were removed prior to storage, the car remains totally orignal even down to the air in the tyres. The photographs show the car still in its protective waxoyl covering and was displayed "as found" on the TSSC stand at this years NEC Classic Motor Show in November. After consultation with the vendor and the Triumph Sports Six Club, along with input from the thousands of admirers the car attracted at this years NEC Classic Car Show, it has been agreed that the Spitfire will be sold "as is" in its protective coating and still decommissioned giving the new owner the choice of bringing it back to life or allowing it to remain in its preserved state
ESTIMATE:
£12,000 - 15,000

Tail of the Dragon in a Triumph Spitfire
*** yep***updated after 108 views- # curves corrected and engine revs added! *****
Three of us ran up R129 to Knoxville from the Road Atlanta Mitty 2012 event. The bikers at the Deals Gap Motorcycle Resort (with the 'Tree of Shame') loved our cars nearly as much as we do. This little ditty is just an example of this twisty road....318 curves in 11 miles, but only 6 miles as the crow flies. This is just the first 1/3rd-2/3rds before the overlook, set to music that I feel matched the mood of the road.
