About myself: I've been interested in Motorsports for
long time. A friend and I went to see the 1st Players 200 at
Mosport in June, 1961. During the sixties I competed in many
navigation rallies, 4 or 5 road race weekends, and a couple
of hillclimbs. This was followed by some racing on dirt tracks
with a Mini in 'mini stock' races. Later I worked as pit crew
for a couple of friends, one with a Mini and the other with
a Titan Formula Ford in the Bulova Series. In the mid-seventies
I became interested in motorcyles and competed in enduros and
ice races. On one occasion I was a finisher in BEMC's 2 day,
Corduroy Enduro. In the eighies I earned a glider pilots licence
and enjoyed the solitude of the sky but then decided to keep
my feet on the ground and came back to cars. Since then I've
been a marshall and scrutineer as well as the President of the
St. Lawrence Auto Club in Kingston. I returned to the track
as a driver for VARAC's Festival in 2002 which I enjoyed immensely.
I look forward to many more weekends with VARAC.
