Hi Guys,

=20

not sure if this is of interest for you but I=E2=80=99ve just remembered =
a little Story of Kas Kastner.

=20

Somewhat 1989 or 90 the Nissan GTP race cars were competing hard with =
the Joest Porsche 962.

=20

Not too far away from my place  lived a man I met from time to time =
=E2=80=93 Hans-Dieter Dechent =E2=80=93 who ran the Martini Le Mans =
racing team in the late 60ties early 70ties until he embezzled sponsor =
money from his own team to do private pleasure stuff, like helicopter =
skiing. (his words)

=20

He later joint the Joest team in USA as team organizer and so he met Kas =
Kastner several times, when Kas was at the track side to support his =
Nissan team.

=20

Once the Nissan team ran into a technical problem, the alternator failed =
=E2=80=9Cagain=E2=80=9D and they were running out of spares. So Kas went =
over to Hans-Dieter and asked if he could borrow an alternator for the =
next race. Without hesitation Hans-Dieter went to the truck and pulled =
out an alternator and gave it to Kas. Kas team made the GTP car run and =
won the race.

=20

Hans-Dieter added to that story that Reinhold Joest =E2=80=93 the team =
owner =E2=80=93 saw that Hans-Dieter gave away a spare to the worst =
opponent with the angry words: =E2=80=9CHow could you, we will have an =
easy win!=E2=80=9D

=20

Hans-Dieter replied: =E2=80=9CWe win on the track and not at the green =
table!=E2=80=9D

=20

Both are now some years in the Lap of the Gods.

=20

End of Story

Many of you noticed my 2000 in the paddock at Lime Rock a couple months 
ago.

Yes, I realize how cool it would be to race Mike's car.

But no, there is no room in my life for another race car!

Thanks for sharing this story Chris.  Very cool.=20
Canepa Motorsport in Scotts Valley, has one of the Nissan GTP cars and owne=
r Bruce Canepa races it. =20
It is kept in absolute perfect as new condition, as is every single aspect =
of the business.  Canepa is about 5 miles, as the crow flies, from me.  For=
 years I thought there was someone closer to me that had a few race cars, a=
s I would hear repeated revs from them echoing through the mountains on occ=
asion.  A few years ago, I was in town and heard extremely loud revving, li=
ke a race car on a dyno.  It was outside in the back parking lot at Canepa'=
s.  His Porsche 935 was being tested.  It was then I realized all those rev=
s through the years were coming from Canepa's.  He must donated a lot of fu=
nds to local authorities to be allowed to make all that wonderful noise. =
=20
My nephew works at Canepa's in the parts department. =20
