Mike has been flogging that old 3 for over 30 years now, he knows how to drive it and is very good about the 6k rev limit.
Mid-O is a great track, I did a couple weekends driving that car, and hauled my TR-6 up there for the 92 event.
You don't get a good picture of "madness" with the camera mounted high like that though, sitting in the drivers seat it's a real thrill, the uphill blind left-hander, the car really gets unloaded and you just hope it sticks when it settles down and then it way to the left to get a late apex on the next right-hander.
Good fun!
Thanks for posting that. I've never watched a car like mine race before. My son raced his motorcycle at that track.
Thanks Glen.
I watched part of it and sent the link to my father-in-law who used to race Formula-Vees with Mike.
Stay healthy.

I didn't go, not willing to take the risk, as did a fair number of others who didn't go, but they had over 30 TRs running in spite of that.
Here's a video from Mike Jacksons TR-3.
It's a little boring, he had a couple opportunities to get in the fight ahead of him but good judgement & discretion prevailed...
Enjoy!
Glen
