Good afternoon, Amici.
=20
=20
It has been an absolutely crazy month and I apologize for the delay getting=
 out this much over due update on the Kastner Cup.  First and foremost =E2=
=80=93 thank you thank you thank you for everyone that has registered.  We =
are currently at 40 entries and are expecting a handful more =E2=80=93 this=
 will be a fantastic turnout and Road America is very happy about the suppo=
rt you all have shown for the event.  If you are planning on coming but hav=
en=E2=80=99t registered yet please be aware that online registration closes=
 next Monday 7/3 at 10 am Central.  Online registration can be found here: =
https://www.motorsportreg.com/events/weathertech-international-challenge-ju=
ly-13th-16th-road-america-327737
=20
If you have any questions at all, PLEASE do not hesitate to contact me.=20
=20
I will be sending more detailed information out next week for everyone, but=
 there are a few things that I wanted to put out there now:
=20
    * Paddock Parking =E2=80=93 Road America usually does assigned parking =
for this event.  At our request, they have allocated us a designated plot o=
f land and are allowing us to organize it as we see fit.  We will be assist=
ing everyone with where they need to be once they get onsite.  With that in=
 mind, most of you that have registered have received an email from me aski=
ng questions about multiple thing including when you plan on arriving and i=
f there is someone you would like to be near.  Even if you don=E2=80=99t fi=
ll out the driver bio, these 2 pieces of information would be very helpful =
in helping us plan.  If you haven=E2=80=99t received this email from me yet=
 you will shortly.
=20
    * Triumph Street Car Parking =E2=80=93 if you are driving your non-raci=
ng Triumph to the event, Road America has graciously given us additional sp=
ace inside the track paddock for these cars to be parked and displayed!  Th=
e document I send next week will have specifics on how you will check in bu=
t please spread the word that anyone driving their classic Triumph car to t=
he event will be able to park in the competition paddock near the race cars=
!  Note that due to the size of this event paddock parking is by permit onl=
y and restricted so this is a big get for the Triumph community!
=20
=20
    * Competition Schedule =E2=80=93 on the event Website for the WeatherTe=
ch International Challenge there is a link to a Provisional schedule.  They=
 are still moving things around so run group times throughout the weekend w=
ill still move a little but the Kastner Cup will be at 11:30 am on Sunday J=
uly 16th.  Next week I will be sending out a condensed version of the sched=
ule with only the times/events pertinent to FOT included to make it easier =
to digest.=20
=20
    * British Sportscar Hall of Fame Induction =E2=80=93 the British Sports=
car Hall of Fame induction ceremony is being held as part of the Welcome Re=
ception at the track on Thursday evening.  Please make time to come to supp=
ort this event as our very own Mark Bradakis will be among the honorees alo=
ng with a posthumous induction for Triumph hotshoe Brian Fuerstenau.  The c=
eremony will begin at 6 pm on Thursday 7/13 at the Road America Center.
=20
=20
    * Special Guests =E2=80=93 we have several honored guest that will be j=
oining us at the Kastner Cup.  Triumph Factory Driver Robert Johns and 250K=
 Designer Peter Brock will be gracing our Paddock with their presence for t=
his event.  We are very excited to welcome them both!
=20
=20
    * Kastner Cup Posters =E2=80=93 Mark Alexander posted previously about =
the availability of this year=E2=80=99s event poster.  We will have them fo=
r sale at the event, but you can also contact Mark directly if you are not =
attending but would still like to purchase one.  All of the profits from th=
ese posters to toward the Kastner Cup fund used to host this event and make=
 it memorable for everyone in attendance.  Please add one of these to your =
collections.=20
=20
=20
    * Kastner Cup T Shirts =E2=80=93 we are handling T shirts a little diff=
erently this year.  To ease the burden of collecting payments, sorting, and=
 distributing on the very small group putting this event on we have opened =
T Shirt sales online as a fundraiser.  T shirts can be purchased using the =
link below.  We will have a picture of the shirts along with a scannable co=
de at the event so anyone not privy to this email can order one as well.  W=
e currently have orders open to be taken until the week after the event to =
allow everyone to get theirs in.  They will ship directly to you.  Again, 1=
00% of this goes toward the Kastner Cup fund so please order some for you a=
nd your crew!  Order yours here:  http://www.customink.com/fundraising/2023=

=20
=20
    * Group Photo =E2=80=93 we want to make this year=E2=80=99s group photo=
 memorable and it has been difficult finding time and a place to make this =
happen with so many cars at this event (425 and counting) and so much on th=
e calendar.  We have worked with Road America to secure some time on track =
at the end of the day on Saturday to stage what will hopefully be an epic K=
astner Cup group photo that would make Kas proud.  This will take place at =
5:30 on Saturday and we should be back in the paddock by 6:15.  I wanted to=
 put that out there as you consider you evening plans and hope very much th=
at each of you will take the time to participate in this.
=20
=20
    * Fundraising =E2=80=93 in addition to posters and T shirts, as we have=
 shared previously we are accepting donations via the online site gofundme.=
  Many of you have donated and we are very grateful!  A few sent checks whi=
ch is also greatly appreciated.  With the good problem on our hands of more=
 racers than we estimated we want to make sure we can sill offer the same l=
evel of hospitality that we had envisioned.  If you haven=E2=80=99t donated=
 and feel compelled to help your fellow Triumph racers donations can still =
be made at: https://gofund.me/913d6275 or through one of the race chairs.  =
Thanks to all!
=20
=20
=20
=20
I think that is it for today and be on the lookout for more details next we=
ek.  Thank you all for helping to make this group stand out at one of the l=
argest amateur racing events in the country!
