    “100 Years of MG” narrated by Glen Moore & “One Track Mind” the new book by artist, Bob Gillespie

    September 7, 2024 @ 1:00 PM - 3:00 PM

    • « Summer Concert Series: Jess Novack & Ben Wayne
    • Cameron R. Argetsinger Award for Outstanding Contributions to Motorsports »

    After the excitement of Friday’s Grand Prix Festival on September 6, you are invited to a very special Center Conversation event at the International Motor Racing Research Center on Saturday, September 7 from 1-3PM.

    Glen Moore is a noted MG historian, enthusiast, restorer, writer, racer… and owner of the Bob Fergus MGTD that competed in the 1952 Queen Catherine Cup race here at The Glen.  Glen will offer a fascinating commentary on both the manufacturing and racing heritage of the car we honor as our featured marque at the Festival.

    Noted local artist and race enthusiast, Bob Gillespie, will share the dais as he introduces his new book, One Track Mind to the public during the Festival weekend.  The book will feature 95 paintings, 25 drawings, and 4 murals that will chronicle more than 50 years of Bob’s amazing and evocative racing artwork.

    After the formal program, both gentlemen will return to the Research Center, where Glen will speak more about MG history and the Fergus car, which will be on display, and Bob to sell and autograph copies of One Track Mind.

    Make your Festival weekend more complete by joining us for this great program.  Admission is free.  For more information, call the IMRRC at (607) 535-9044.
