Was at Wheels On The Bay in Belleville Ontario with my TTA, Dennis Gage was there picking cars to tape future shows with and he picked my TTA. Great to have the coverage for our cars. Great way to end a car show, little bittersweet, as the TTA did not win it's class, which is not at all unusual in Canada, as not too many people seem to know much about the TTA here.

Tta # 78, Indy Festival Car To Be Featured On "my Classic Car" With Dennis Gage, Spring 2018

Perfect car guy gentleman. Genuine enthusiasm for the hobby and people.
I think it was exactly why Gage covered the car, plain white car that was anything but plain once the hood was open, and discussion about suspension and brakes. General public want to see more mainstream, paint and flash. These are static car displays, aftermarket mods, paint decals and chrome will trump a factory purpose built performance car unless it is something like a big block Chevelle, Camaro or Mustang that everyone can identify.

The more exposure the better. I almost got mine on All Girls Garage. It could still happen.
I think I could have done a lot better job on the video, but Jan is creating a point document of all the technical changes that were done to the TTA over a regular GTA, which was already a fairly impressive performance car for the day. The more I read about the TTA on different sites the more impressed I was with the engineering and challenges with creating this car. Amazing they are not a little better know and sought after. Pretty much every car guy knows what a GN is, and a lot call GN's GNX's, but the funny thing is, actually more performance changes were done to the TTA over the GTA vs GNX over regular GN. And, a TTA will handle. I can understand not many people knowing about them in Canada, as they were not sold here new, but one would think in the U.S. that would be different.
