RCSCC Triad

 

I think I might have mentioned this before but this is a more complete rundown of the 1961 Royal City Sports Car Club Triad event. It involved a rally, a gymkhana and an autocross. Looked snowy for the autocross and probably for the other events.

Snow forecast for today and tomorrow around here as well. Let's run the Triad again!

racing that doesn't always need good weather, part three

Another event that can go in the rain. This one I remember as it happened near where I grew up in the south end of Langley. I never knew it as "Horne gravel pit", just as one of the gravel pits in the area. This one was just south of 28th Avenue, north of Campbell River (creek, we called it) and west of 200th Street (Carvolth Road).
