Amici-
 
This is several days overdue but as typically happens the real world was waiting to bash me over the head as soon as I got back from Road America and I've been playing catch up all week.  I wanted to take a moment to thank each and every one of you that attended the Kastner Cup last weekend.  All that were there can attest to the fact that this was no small event.  With 500+ cars and thousands of spectators it is difficult for a group to stand out but we did.  From the cars on display at the welcome dinner, to the FOT members involved with and honored at the HOF induction, to the parade and concourse Friday night, and all weekend on the track you shined in the spotlight.  I hope you enjoyed your time there.  I can tell you first hand that we made a great impression on the Road America staff as I'd knew we would.  
 
Thanks too to all that supported the event through your donations of time, materials, and/or labor.  There are a lot of moving pieces involved in executing a good event and it takes a village.  The event would not have happened without you.  I personally wish I would have had more time to hang out with all of you but my own Vintage ride demanded a lot of my time and attention last weekend as they are prone to do.  It was great to meet so many of you though and I look forward to seeing you at other events in the future.  Big thanks to my co-chair Mark Alexander for all of his efforts over the past year to help bring all of this together. It started with a phone call from him to me when I was on my way to GingerMan in April of last year.  I think we met our expectations, Mark.  Thanks to our special guests Peter Brock and Bob Johns for gracing us with their presence, history, and insight that made the event all that much more special. Thanks to Shawn Frank for his time spent capturing the event for all to enjoy in the future.  And finally thanks to Joe Alexander for being our Grand Marshal and keeping Kas' spirit alive.  He would have been proud of you last weekend and of all of you that raced.  Exquisite cars and racing all weekend long.   
 
Congrats to our Kastner Cup winner Tony Drews.  The selection process is not an easy one but Tony exemplifies the pillars that the award stands for.  Congrats also go to our marque award winners:
 
Triumph Special - Bill Hart
TR3 - Mike Jackson
TR4 -  Brian Howlett
TR6 - Bob Lang
TR7 - Curt Johnston
TR8 - Joe Carr
GT6 - Dan Gehweiler
Spitfire - Dave Amys

One last bit of housekeeping - for those interested in event posters they are still available through Mark Alexander.  If you still would like to order a Kastner Cup shirt the online sale is still opens but closes this Sunday.  Here is the link:

As I said last weekend - FOT and the Kastner Cup represent the best parts of Vintage Racing.  As a driver of several orphan cars I have no equivalent to this group or the Cup but I thank you for allowing me to be a Friend of Triumph.  Thanks again and best of luck with the rest of your racing seasons.

 race was determined by the very seasoned and helpful timing and scoring sta=
ff at Road America based on the qualifying sessions on Saturday.&nbsp; Not a=

ut didn't perfectly&nbsp;translate to false grid staff and running order.&nb=
