The local Triumph Sports Owners Association (TSOA NSW) newsletter alerted me to a an online database of "<i>old racing photographs</i>", http://www.autopics.com.au.

I went to one of the TR7 Pro events and blame this activity for my wedge addiction.

Enjoy:

We have a few TR7s racing in NZ. Mostly amateur & (like me) sub-amateur. This years Triumphs at Taupo had 5 TR7s - only 1 was a 2 Litre. I only mention it because mine was the fastest :) Shameless self promotion - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EiohlFcaF5o .

Also at Taupo at the Easter meeting was this proper 400BHP racing TR7.
