AHCO Members Gone to the Races
The weekend of July 11-13, 2008 held the Historic Races at the Portland International Raceway. Two members of the Austin Healey Club of Oregon presented race ready Healeys.
Steve Rux had set up his pit area on the grass west of the larger pits. I found Steve’s 1962 Sprite in amongst a group of Sprites with their owners all wrenching away and preparing for qualification runs and eventually competition.
When I took the first shots of Steve’s car he had just found a broken Panhard rod and was making plans to get it up to Richard Mayer’s shop to do a little welding. From the picture of Steve sitting in the cockpit trying to keep cool under his bumbershoot and later exiting Turn 2 of the “Carousel” he must have gotten the suspension repaired.
