For release: Immediately 
Classic Motorsports magazine presents the Kastner Cup Vintage Race

It's like a planetary alignment for Triumph fans, only way cooler, since you 
can actually see it: Hundreds of historic Triumphs from around the globe are 
converging on Watkins Glen September 3-7 for the Kastner Cup Vintage Race, 
presented by Classic Motorsports magazine and Moss Motors. 

Among the luminaries will be the famed Group 44 factory race cars, the first 
production Triumph sports car, and - of course - Kas Kastner, the legendary 
Triumph tuner, racer and head of the North American Triumph Competition 
Department.

It's all part of the Sportscar Vintage Racing Association's U.S. Vintage 
Grand Prix, the Grand Prix the largest vintage race weekend in the east. 
Kastner 
will present the Kastner Cup to the racer who best embodies the spirit of the 
marque and the event for the award. He'll also be on hand to assist racers and 
talk to fans of the marque.

TS01, a 1953 TR2 that holds the distinction of being the first production 
Triumph sports car off the line, will also be there. Joe Richards, who 
painstakingly restored TSO1 to its historic original specs, will be honored by 
Friends 
of Triumph, the North America-based group of Triumph racers and race fans.

Triumph enthusiasts and racers will also be welcomed into the Friends of 
Triumph Hospitality Tent and into the town of Watkins Glen, where the local 
Chamber of Commerce organizes the yearly Grand Prix Festival on Friday. 

Triumph enthusiasts have an opportunity to enter in a Triumph-only road 
rally, and selected SVRA race cars will make a trip down from the track, park 
on 
display, and then take parade laps of the original 6.6 mile street circuit. 

For more information on this amazing weekend of vintage and historic racing 
go to ClassicMotorsports.net/kastner-cup or contact Tim Baxter at
