Robert, a big time vintage Triumph Spitfire autocrossing enthusiast, brought out another of his Triumph Spitfires to the SPOKES 2009 Autocross #5. This dark blue model is from 1978.

Jake brought his 2004 Mazdaspeed MX-5 to the SPOKES 2009 Autocross #4. It’s easy to understand why I use the term “hot running”. Take a look at his car’s gearshift knob – that’s a hot water faucet handle…! This performance version of the Miata model has only 30,350 miles! His other car, a daily driver, [...]
