[Fot] free entry into the Triumph race at the Glen?

[Mike Harmuth]

Thanks Paul. I spoke with SRVA and this offer is only for racers who have
done an SVRA event in the past. I just registered and it was just $100 for
the weekend, including two sessions each day on Friday and Saturday with
your regular SVRA race group. If you're still running by Sunday's All
Triumph race and take the green flag, the $100 gets refunded.  List price
for the weekend, non member, is $675 + $100 for the Triumph race. A friend
who races a MGB with SVRA received a similar invite today but for the
spring Sebring event. SVRA will beat Lime Rock next year for Memorial Day
weekend, curious who the featured marque will be for that event.

The only SVRA event I ever ran was the Kastner Cup event at the Glen
(2008?) so I suspect many of you folks have received a similar invite, it
looks like the real deal.
