Deja Vu at the Vintage Festival From Page 20 while Nestleton's Dave Lee may, at year's end, regret missing the first race weekend. His perfor- mance last week (one win and two runner-up plac- ings) have him in definite contention for the series title. Jeff Hanley had things go all his way early in Saturday's action, easily taking both Late Model heat races. The 25 lap fea- ture run saw Hanley start- ing at the tail of the field, but within eight circuits the Georgetown resident was challenging the Monte Carlo of Pee Wee Evans for the lead. Despite Hanley's best efforts, the Stoney Creek driver held on for a two car length vic- tory, with Port Perry's Grant Edwards coming home in third place. Roundy-round action continues this Saturday with the ThunderCars, the Late Models and the Mosport Modifieds on the track. Or.... Hands up now, anybody that has actually seen a Bug-Eyed Sprite, a three wheeled Morgan SS, a Maserti Typo 61 or a Lister Knobbly in action. (Careful, you may be dat- ing yourself!!) For the uninformed, these are race cars, really, really OLD race cars and you might just catch a glimpse of any one of them this weekend at Mosport Park's Vintage Festival. From the tiny, open wheeled Formula Juniors up to the heavy Detroit Iron, all classes, shapes and sizes of historic auto- mobiles will be featured at this celebration of motorsport's Golden Era. Local vintage racer Grant Beath is planning to leave the lovely Lola T-163 at home but will not be idle as he debuts the newest addition to the Scuderia Beathton, a 1978 Shadow DN-5 Formula One car. This car took the check- ered flag in the Grand Prix of Austria at the hands of future world champion Alan Jones, and while Grant may not be ready to challenge the likes of Jones or Villeneuve yet, the sound of a Grand Prix engine echoing through the hills of Mosport once again will be worth the price of admission. So pack up your walker and your Geritol, we'll see you at the track, From Corner Five.... Thornbury set to take the helm From Page 20 to steer players towards tryouts overseas and south of the border, or help them towards scholarships. The MoJacks have been a struggling team of late. Two years ago, they missed the playoffs in the Central Jr. League for the first time in many seasons, and this past spring, they limped into post-season competition on the final weekend of the regular schedule, taking the fourth and last playoff berth just a couple of points ahead of the Georgina Ice and Bobcaygeon Bullets. They came up against the pow- erful Little Britain Merchants (who even- tually advanced as far as the Ontario semi-finals) in the first round and went down with a fight in four straight. However, general manager Parliament knows there is a highly talented core of ModJacks eligible to return for the coming campaign and he's confident that most, if not all, will be back in uniform this fall. That group includes netminder Jeff Mackie who played brilliantly and was a big factor in the squad making the play- offs. Last season the team went through a horrendous losing skid that dragged on to 10 games. Asked if he has ever been on a team in a similar situation, Thornbury smiled and said that when he was with the Niagara Falls Flyers, a team that was supposed to do big things that winter, they went through a 17- game winless streak. The Flyers eventu- ally got into the playoffs, but went out in four straight. Since returning to live in Woodville with his wife and two daughters, aged six and eight (they are all big hockey fans) Thornbury has been working for Fleetwood Travel Trailers in Lindsay. He began his hatkey in his home town minor system, played Metro Jr. B with Seneca, Junior A with Aurora and then had four years of Major Junior with Niagara Falls, North Bay and Cornwall. Drafted by the Penguins (their third pick in the '81 entry draft) he spent part of the 1983-84 season with the NHL team, then played in the AHL and IHL with Baltimore, Fredericton, Moncton and Muscegon. In 1986, he was with Canada's Olympic team and then went overseas to Germany with the Koln Sharks. From 1992 to 1994, he was with the Frankfurt Lions and was voted the most popular athlete in that German city. He returned to North America for the 1994- 95 season as an assistant playing coach with Oklahoma City Blazers of the Central League, then went back to Germany to finish up his playing career in 1996 with Frankfurt and the Wolfsburg Wolves. His most productive season ever as a pro was in 1992-93 with Frankfurt where in 56 games he had 54 goals and 68 assists, and for two seasons with Koln, (1986-88) the Sharks were champions of the German League.
