Team Obsolete is excited to announce our participation in the Vintage Road Racing Association’s upcoming Vintage Festival taking place at Mosport, Canadian Tire Motorsports Park. This event will feature not only sprint and endurance motorcycle races but also a swap meet and Concours d’Elegance. More info on these at: https://cvmg.ca/VFest

We have committed to bringing five pedigree historic racing machines with us to be raced and paraded by our team.

The machines:

1. 1968 Benelli 350/4 ex-Renzo Pasolini, to be paraded by Dave Lloyd, a former Grand Prix rider who actually raced against Pasolini and the Benelli at the Isle of Man TT in 1968!

—

2. 1972 MV Agusta 500/3 ex-Giacomo Agostini, to be paraded by VRRA stalwart Ian McQueen

—

3. 1973 Harley Davidson XR750TT to be raced and paraded by ex-Harley Davidson Factory Team rider Walt Fulton III

—

4. 1959 Matchless G50, to be raced by Ian McQueen

—

5. 1963 Seeley “MJC Special” sidecar outfit, to be raced by team riders, Seth Rosko and Michelle Le Clear-Fisher, in honor of our team mate the late Randy Hoffman. The return of this outfit to the circuits by Team Obsolete was instrumental in Randy’s revival in History Racing.

We are pleased to announce the expansion of the Team Obsolete  VRRA Vintage Festival program at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park.  Dave Roper will be racing his 1950 Moto Guzzi 500 Falcone Special and the 1960 Surtees AJS Special 350.  This was the late Michelle Duff’s favorite ride.  In the late Michelle Duff’s honor, Dave will also be parading the Surtees 7R. 

We are very excited about this event. See you in the paddock!

Many thanks to the VRRA Organizers, and to our sponsors:
