[Fot] Kastner Cup Featured at Portland SpeedTour, July 22-25, 2021

Peyote and I are signed up, at least as far as I know we are. I even have a shiny new SVRA license, good through 6/9/2023. Potentially this will be my last race, but certainly not Peyote’s. I will be selling Peyote this year. Tony Garmey at Horizon Racing is going through it now, it goes on the dyno in a few days. I’m putting together extensive documentation of its outrageous history. There can’t be many cars that have been raced as as long, as frequently, by as many owners. Vast amounts of mojo in this crazy little car. My collection if race results is inches thick—and that’s just me.  The first consideration will be that whoever buys it will keep racing it. No collectors need apply. I doubt most collectors of shiny auto toys would be interested, but who knows. 

Oddly enough, even though I turned 74 this year my decision has nothing to do with age, and it’s not financially motivated. Mostly, like my hero Mr. Kastner, it’s just that I’ve become addicted to doing things in the water—mostly wing foiling. With Peyote gone I’ll turn my attention to the Ambro 001, and finish it. I may race it a few times just for the hell of it, but that will probably head off to a new home as well. Then I need to decide what to do with my project TR3. eTR3? Fast street car? Something else? 

Then there’s the dune buggy, all these motorcycles, and my incredibly stupid GMC Motorhome project. I don’t lack for things to attempt to focus my ADHD attention upon.
