Mechanically new: rebuilt engine/trans NOS AE bearings, TWM triple SK carbs, Quaife diff w/upgraded rear hubs, new fuel tank & plumbing, new brakes, new seats. Body has scrapes but it's a Texas car I've owned for 30 years and has never seen salt or snow. New stuff not installed: Moss full carpet kit, interior/trunk panel kit, soft top, tonneau, Al rad, Richard Good powder-coated shroud, Richard Good ceramic-coated header. Asking $10K, offering here first hoping it goes to a good home. Could be a $30-40K car with some TLC and body/paintwork. Drive it away or can deliver in upper Midwest. If the 700KB PDF attachment didn't make it, please contact me for details.

I have been wanting to make the move from my spitfire to a formula ford for a while now. I bought a Lola, so the spitfire needs a new home. 1964, F production 1147. Prepped by Joe Siam at Chequered flag racing. It was one of his rental cars for many years, I bought it in 2019 and have raced it since. It?s ready to race, was on track in may, motor was freshened up with new rings and bearing and a valve job in 2020. The car was F production champion in 2016 with VARA. It has been super reliable for me, starts every time, goes every time, wins pretty often. It?s a pretty competitive car! Car is located in Tehachapi CA. (Near willow springs) I need 8k for the car. Have a lot of spares available we can discuss options, there is an entire other car with title, coupe of motors and gear boxes and diffs. Boxes of new parts.

Charlie Darrow was a FOT member, but unfortunately Charlie passed away in early 2020, and I had no way of contacting Jessie until this past weekend. Jessie and brother Pat have now teamed up to drive the opposite pair of Spitfires. (While the cars look identical, closer inspection reveal one is LHD, the other RHD!) The brothers put on a fantastic show for us at the Kastner Cup, both cars had a solid showing. The Darrows were joined by Joe Friel, who has taken over Charlie's shop, Valley Sports and Classics in Williamsport, PA. Joe had his hands dirty keeping the cars in good shape for the weekend. I am sponsoring brothers Jessie and Pat Darrow as drivers, and Joe Friel as crew, our newest members to the FOT! It was my pleasure chatting with you guys this weekend, and welcome to the FOT!

It was fantastic to spend time with old friends and make new ones. While my weekend got much more exciting at the Kastner Cup presentation, it still would have been a really great race weekend for me had the cards fallen in a different direction with the pick for the K-Cup winner. As I sat on the Grid for the K-Cup race, I am looking at Chris Marks (TR8) on pole, Sam Halkius (TR6) on the outside pole, then Joe Carr (Huffaker TR8) and my TR250 on the second row. Behind me is the Curt Johnston (Huffaker TR7) and Bob "why are they braking 200 feet early?" Lang (TR6). Plus, I realize there are several really fast GT6's back there, although circumstances kept the Dolan cars from posting times that would put them where they belonged on the grid. I'm feeling intimidated, I realize that set of Speedsters under my car are going to be working really, really hard keep any kind of pace with this crew. The rest of this is by memory, as my camera didn't work... The race is off to a great start, and somehow I find myself dogging the Huffaker TR8. It rained earlier in the day, and the track would best be described as "drying, but not quite dry". I realize Joe is driving a borrowed, incredibly important, historic car, and is feeling out the corners, but for me the grip was there. On the second lap, Joe goes a little hot into one of the uphill sweepers, and my six cylinder powers by him on the inside. Joe takes the position back exhibiting superior straight line speed, but I got him again. If memory serves, we traded places a couple times, I am scored in front of the TR8 for laps 3, 4 and 5! As the race wears on, Joe settles in and shows us what he and that beautiful TR8 were capable of, and finishes the race some 12 seconds in front of me. After the race Joe explains to me what I was seeing in his cockpit, his HANS tether was not quite right and he was trying to get it sorted while on track! I am thrilled to finish 4th, the first car not running on grooved slicks. Even better, I learn Mark Wheatley, my long-time paddock partner finished behind me in 5th in his TR4! Unfortunately for Bob Lang, his car didn't go the distance, he pulled in after noticing a temperature spike. In the reunion race Sunday morning, Sam's TR6 was a no-show, and Chris was under strict orders to keep the car in one piece as car owner Peter has a pending sale in place. The two TR8's are front row, with me and Curt Johnston right behind them. The two TR8's take off, and my rear view mirrors are quickly filled with Bob Lang and Brian Dolan's GT6. I am watching the two of them battle it out, when Bob gets by me in Turn 3. It does not take long before Brian gets by me as well and catches Bob. Now I am watching the two of them race each other hard, and I am enjoying the action from the best seat in the house. When the two of them are trying to out brake each other in turn 3 and I see each of them making tire smoke, I realize things are really heating up there! Then they are side by side going down into turn 5. Knowing there is no way two cars are going to through turn 5 faster than one car can, I lay back a little and it unfolds perfectly. I get the run into the corner, am on the gas hard tracking out on the preferred line, and can squeeze my way right up the middle between the two cars! Thanks for making room guys, that was an awesome pass! Bob and Brian continued racing each other so the rest of my ride in the reunion race was not heavily contested, and I was pleased to finish third behind the two TR8's. As I understand it, Chris had to slow down to let his brakes recover, Joe took the overall lead and by the time Chris had confidence in his brakes again, he was out of time to mount a comeback. He told me he needed one more lap to catch Joe! A few highlights for me over the course of the weekend include: The whole scene with Christian Marks flying in from Germany to drive Canadian Pete Bulkowski's TR8. These guys know how to have fun while preparing a fast race car. Then there was Chris' incredible drive on Saturday morning's Ground Pounders group session. It was a very wet track and he literally lapped the entire field and the rooster tail shooting up behind the TR8 was so cool! Somebody posted some video of that somewhere, maybe somebody can provide a link? Meeting Lyman and Dave running the Baja TR3. Taking one look at the car you immediately realized this thing is something special. While it was obvious the car was not going to be competitive for race wins on a road course, it shows how we still have people who are committed to the Triumph marque, who are willing to spend the time and effort to save significant Triumph history, and are willing to share that with us in venues like the Kastner Cup. Well done Lyman, thanks for your efforts. And well driven Dave, you had a tough task in front of you managing the car on a road course. I can't wait to hear about the car's next chapter! I helped out on the K-Cup committee, so seeing how the event unfolded after all the planning was kind of cool for me. Curt Johnston did a stellar job, and Jim Dolan steered his crew with the PVGP to really make this a special event for us. Job well done guys! Seeing the family teams in action is always cool for me, we had Sean and Brendan Alexander, Marty and Jason Sukey, Phil and Dave Gott, Jessie and Pat Darrow, and of course the Dolan family. Sorry if I missed anybody! Hats off to Joe Alexander and his family, while it may look like all this just happens, there is a lot of work behind the scenes. Thanks guys. So next year the race for the Kastner Cup will be at Road America, I can't wait! With a full grid of the Mid-west Triumph folk gunning for the Cup, I am confident that it will be a spectacular show! I think the smart money will be on Friendly Ghost Racing, no pressure Jason! :-) Henry Frye #29 TR250 From vfracing at aol.com Tue Jul 19 08:59:21 2022 From: vfracing at aol.com (vfracing at aol.com) Date: Tue, 19 Jul 2022 14:59:21 +0000 (UTC) Subject: [Fot] Race Recap, from the yellow TR250 In-Reply-To: <94bee5cc60dbc39c0dd692ab9feed807@tr4racer.com> References: <94bee5cc60dbc39c0dd692ab9feed807@tr4racer.com> Message-ID: <44986809.1918740.1658242761756@mail.yahoo.com> Thanks, Henry!?

Since there are 3 fairly large vintage races at Road America each summer, could you please tell us which one that the Kastner Cup will be part of? One is in May (SVRA), one is July (Run by R.A.) and the Fall Vintage Festival is in September (VSCDA). It could help people with planning to know which one the Kastner Cup will be at. Hotel space gets tight quickly for the July and September events. Therefore, people will want to reserve rooms as early as possible if it will be held in conjunction with one of those events. Thanks, again congratulations.

What a treat to read your wonderful recap. Posts like this remind me of the earlier days of FOT. You Show what it takes to win the Cup. Knowledge, grit, pace and the ability to explain And embrace the spirit of this whole deal. Your win is well deserved in so many ways. Looking forward to Road America like never before!

It rained earlier in the day, and the track would best be described as "drying, but not quite dry". I realize Joe is driving a borrowed, incredibly important, historic car, and is feeling out the corners, but for me the grip was there. On the second lap, Joe goes a little hot into one of the uphill sweepers, and my six cylinder powers by him on the inside. Joe takes the position back exhibiting superior straight line speed, but I got him again. If memory serves, we traded places a couple times, I am scored in front of the TR8 for laps 3, 4 and 5! As the race wears on, Joe settles in and shows us what he and that beautiful TR8 were capable of, and finishes the race some 12 seconds in front of me. After the race Joe explains to me what I was seeing in his cockpit, his HANS tether was not quite right and he was trying to get it sorted while on track! > > I am thrilled to finish 4th, the first car not running on grooved slicks.

The two TR8's are front row, with me and Curt Johnston right behind them. The two TR8's take off, and my rear view mirrors are quickly filled with Bob Lang and Brian Dolan's GT6. I am watching the two of them battle it out, when Bob gets by me in Turn 3. It does not take long before Brian gets by me as well and catches Bob. Now I am watching the two of them race each other hard, and I am enjoying the action from the best seat in the house. When the two of them are trying to out brake each other in turn 3 and I see each of them making tire smoke, I realize things are really heating up there! Then they are side by side going down into turn 5. Knowing there is no way two cars are going to through turn 5 faster than one car can, I lay back a little and it unfolds perfectly. I get the run into the corner, am on the gas hard tracking out on the preferred line, and can squeeze my way right up the middle between the two cars! Thanks for making room guys, that was an awesome pass! Bob and Brian continued racing each other so the rest of my ride in the reunion race was not heavily contested, and I was pleased to finish third behind the two TR8's. As I understand it, Chris had to slow down to let his brakes recover, Joe took the overall lead and by the time Chris had confidence in his brakes again, he was out of time to mount a comeback. He told me he needed one more lap to catch Joe! > > A few highlights for me over the course of the weekend include: > > The whole scene with Christian Marks flying in from Germany to drive Canadian Pete Bulkowski's TR8.

It was fantastic to spend time with old friends and make new ones. While my weekend got much more exciting at the Kastner Cup presentation, it still would have been a really great race weekend for me had the cards fallen in a different direction with the pick for the K-Cup winner. As I sat on the Grid for the K-Cup race, I am looking at Chris Marks (TR8) on pole, Sam Halkius (TR6) on the outside pole, then Joe Carr (Huffaker TR8) and my TR250 on the second row. Behind me is the Curt Johnston (Huffaker TR7) and Bob "why are they braking 200 feet early?" Lang (TR6). Plus, I realize there are several really fast GT6's back there, although circumstances kept the Dolan cars from posting times that would put them where they belonged on the grid. I'm feeling intimidated, I realize that set of Speedsters under my car are going to be working really, really hard keep any kind of pace with this crew. The rest of this is by memory, as my camera didn't work... The race is off to a great start, and somehow I find myself dogging the Huffaker TR8. It rained earlier in the day, and the track would best be described as "drying, but not quite dry". I realize Joe is driving a borrowed, incredibly important, historic car, and is feeling out the corners, but for me the grip was there. On the second lap, Joe goes a little hot into one of the uphill sweepers, and my six cylinder powers by him on the inside. Joe takes the position back exhibiting superior straight line speed, but I got him again. If memory serves, we traded places a couple times, I am scored in front of the TR8 for laps 3, 4 and 5! As the race wears on, Joe settles in and shows us what he and that beautiful TR8 were capable of, and finishes the race some 12 seconds in front of me. After the race Joe explains to me what I was seeing in his cockpit, his HANS tether was not quite right and he was trying to get it sorted while on track! I am thrilled to finish 4th, the first car not running on grooved slicks. Even better, I learn Mark Wheatley, my long-time paddock partner finished behind me in 5th in his TR4! Unfortunately for Bob Lang, his car didn't go the distance, he pulled in after noticing a temperature spike. In the reunion race Sunday morning, Sam's TR6 was a no-show, and Chris was under strict orders to keep the car in one piece as car owner Peter has a pending sale in place. The two TR8's are front row, with me and Curt Johnston right behind them. The two TR8's take off, and my rear view mirrors are quickly filled with Bob Lang and Brian Dolan's GT6. I am watching the two of them battle it out, when Bob gets by me in Turn 3. It does not take long before Brian gets by me as well and catches Bob. Now I am watching the two of them race each other hard, and I am enjoying the action from the best seat in the house. When the two of them are trying to out brake each other in turn 3 and I see each of them making tire smoke, I realize things are really heating up there! Then they are side by side going down into turn 5. Knowing there is no way two cars are going to through turn 5 faster than one car can, I lay back a little and it unfolds perfectly. I get the run into the corner, am on the gas hard tracking out on the preferred line, and can squeeze my way right up the middle between the two cars! Thanks for making room guys, that was an awesome pass! Bob and Brian continued racing each other so the rest of my ride in the reunion race was not heavily contested, and I was pleased to finish third behind the two TR8's. As I understand it, Chris had to slow down to let his brakes recover, Joe took the overall lead and by the time Chris had confidence in his brakes again, he was out of time to mount a comeback. He told me he needed one more lap to catch Joe! A few highlights for me over the course of the weekend include: The whole scene with Christian Marks flying in from Germany to drive Canadian Pete Bulkowski's TR8. These guys know how to have fun while preparing a fast race car. Then there was Chris' incredible drive on Saturday morning's Ground Pounders group session. It was a very wet track and he literally lapped the entire field and the rooster tail shooting up behind the TR8 was so cool! Somebody posted some video of that somewhere, maybe somebody can provide a link? Meeting Lyman and Dave running the Baja TR3. Taking one look at the car you immediately realized this thing is something special. While it was obvious the car was not going to be competitive for race wins on a road course, it shows how we still have people who are committed to the Triumph marque, who are willing to spend the time and effort to save significant Triumph history, and are willing to share that with us in venues like the Kastner Cup. Well done Lyman, thanks for your efforts. And well driven Dave, you had a tough task in front of you managing the car on a road course. I can't wait to hear about the car's next chapter! I helped out on the K-Cup committee, so seeing how the event unfolded after all the planning was kind of cool for me. Curt Johnston did a stellar job, and Jim Dolan steered his crew with the PVGP to really make this a special event for us. Job well done guys! Seeing the family teams in action is always cool for me, we had Sean and Brendan Alexander, Marty and Jason Sukey, Phil and Dave Gott, Jessie and Pat Darrow, and of course the Dolan family. Sorry if I missed anybody! Hats off to Joe Alexander and his family, while it may look like all this just happens, there is a lot of work behind the scenes. Thanks guys. So next year the race for the Kastner Cup will be at Road America, I can't wait! With a full grid of the Mid-west Triumph folk gunning for the Cup, I am confident that it will be a spectacular show! I think the smart money will be on Friendly Ghost Racing, no pressure Jason! :-) Henry Frye #29 TR250 _______________________________________________ fot at autox.team.net http://www.fot-racing.com Donate: http://www.team.net/donate.html Archive: http://autox.team.net/archive http://www.team.net/pipermail/fot Unsubscribe/Manage: http://autox.team.net/mailman/options/fot/dave at microworks.net -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Pete and I didn?t have our video sheperd this weekend, unavoidably detained, so we were remiss in our video of the Kastner Cup. This was truly epic! Also, thank you for racing clean, tidy and very fair. I was very comfortable chasing you and dicing with you. Your line is excellent and your braking late and effective. It?s a tough combo to get around! If I had the chance to give you a ?drive of the year award? it would be this one. You managed to wear out both the Kastner Brophy and the Group44 Gt6s. Just by being you. Well done sir. Thanks again for the video and count on upgraded brake fluid for next time!! Best, Brian PS Dad is recovering. A little slower on getting weaned off the oxygen than is ideal, but his brain and body are all working well. Just have to get the fuel air mixture adjusted properly!

A lot of factors and consideration went into the decision and to your point, there are the three vintage events at RA to work with. The WeatherTech International Challenge -Mid-July was chosen and we are working closely with RA to best accommodate the Kastner Cup and its participants in all aspects of a racing event. Brian Garcia and I will be providing additional details in the coming week (and weeks) for those participants that prefer off-track lodging.

My question and message to FOT was to clarify the date and I was only pointing out to people from out of town, that they should book their rooms early. We have been racing there for over 35 years and we know the lay of the land there very well. We ran the July event when it when it was still the Chicago Historic Races, which were organized by a privateer from Chicago who owned the Marchetti Inn. It was a truly great event. Road America later took over the event. We have watched the track, the event and the town go through lots of changes and evolution. Just to help anyone coming from out of town, there are limited average cost rooms near the track on event weekends. The resorts in town are very nice and fun to stay at, but they come at a higher cost. The resorts in town are: The Osthoff The Shore Club Siebkens Attendees will can find more hotels in Plymouth and Sheboygan. For those who did not know. I am sure that you guys will put on a great event for those who attend. Brian was involved with a K-cup at BHF about 6 years ago. I remember that he and Jason did a great job. Again, thanks for the email.

I think we had fun and showed everyone about the Triumphs going fast. Thanks for the warm welcome for Holger and me. The track is a real fun track to drive and the facility is in excellent condition. Peter Bulkowski and his team (Silvain, Steven and Holger) did a very good preparation job on his TR8. We still not know why the brake causes trouble. We didn?t find the malfunction but the car was doing great when the brakes were at service. On the last Ground Pounder race that weekend we didn?t finish. The oil pressure went away and the red light came on. I stopped the engine and parked the car on the grass in a safe position. Happily ? home at Peters place ? the oil pressure was found and the engine seems to be fine. Maybe a malfunction of the gages and sensors or maybe a lack of oil in the dry sump tank. Who knows but that was a good outcome of the weekend that the car is fine. I hope everybody went home fine. Holger and me had a few days at NY and we arrived in Germany a few hours back with a pleasant flight. Thanks again for making this great weekend happen and welcoming the Germans to your event.

Peter?s TR8 is a very fast car. I just tried to keep it on the track. At least ALL Triumph drivers were great ambassadors for our racing and the brand not to forget the very early ones like Bob Johns, Kas Kastner and Bob Tullius.

As most of us are familiar, but for those new, the race celebrated the 70th year of Triumph sports car in competition. The Kastner Cup was named in recognition of the career accomplishment and legacy of R.W. ?Kas? Kastner who passed away on April 11, 2021 at the age of 92. Kas Kastner was one of the most influential individuals responsible for the racing success of Triumph sports cars from the late 1950?s through 1970 and beyond. To this day, his series of Competition Preparation Manuals are a must read for competitors in Triumph sports cars. Later in his career, Kastner directed the Nissan IMSA GTP team that won the manufacturers? championship three years in a row and the drivers? championship four years in a row; a remarkable achievement.* *As much is likely to be written in the coming weeks and months about the 2022 Kastner Cup it is worth mentioning the PIR race maintained the familiar quality of all previous 19 Kastner Cups; a competitive family reunion bringing in Triumphs and drivers from the United States, Canada, and Germany. A big thanks to Curt Johnston for carrying on the legacy over the past 2 seasons for both the events at Portland International Raceway and Pittsburgh International Raceway. Curt has not only maintained the legacy and spirit of the Kastner Cup but has also improved operational processes along the way.* *Speaking of last year?s Portland Kastner Cup? conversations yielded a common theme with many drivers expressing the idea of Road America as the 2023 location of choice. Getting the Kastner Cup back to the centrally located, storied, beautiful?.and very fast venue of Road America made complete sense. 2023 will mark a full 10 years since the Kastner Cup was last held at Road America. The event in 2013 resulted in an incredible grid of 36 cars, consisting of four TR3s, thirteen TR4s, two TR4As, two TR250s (including the famous Peter Brock and Kas Kastner created TR250K), three TR6s, four Spitfires, four GT6s, a TR8, a Peyote MKII Special, a Devin bodied TR4, and a TVR 2200S. Solid evidence indicates we will have an even greater turn-out in 2023 to include many of the usual and important suspects from both coasts, across the US and Canada. Moreover, we are currently coordinating efforts for drivers and/or cars from the UK, Germany, and Australia!* *Lots of positive social media chatter already. Great to see so many excited to attend! * *Of course, more information will follow, however, here are a few key points in preparation for next year's **2023 Kastner Cup!* *Dates: July 14-16, 2023* *Location: Road America Elkhart Lake, WI * *Event: Weathertech International Challenge (WIC) with Brian Redman -Known as one of the one of the largest Vintage Events in the country typically drawing 350 to 400+ race registrations* *Triumphs will be the featured Marque* *2023 Kastner Cup Grand Marshall: Joe Alexander* *Road America is repaving all 4 miles of racing surface after this season* *All cars will run in their respective classes for (3) qualifying sessions, (1) Qualifying Race, (1) Feature Race* *The Kastner cup will be on Sunday for all Triumphs and is in addition to the above* *Friday night concourse for race cars - drive your car from the track to Elkhart, park, and enjoy 2 hours of 5000 spectators walking among the cars and talking to the drivers. * *For those that have not driven, or spectated at Road America the combined event of the Weathertech International Challenge is life changing.* *One last thing?.* *We are excited to announce Brian Garcia?s return as a Kastner Cup Co-Chair for the 2023 event! **Brian Garcia was the Event Chair for the 2017 Kastner Cup at Blackhawk Farms Raceway. A self-proclaimed ?Friend of a Friend of Triumph?, Brian got involved with Triumphs crewing for Jason Ostrowski?s Friendly Ghost Racing GT6 in 2011. The following year, he attended his first Kastner Cup at Road Atlanta and instantly liked the camaraderie he found in the FOT paddock. He earned his nomination to FOT the following year at the Road America Kastner Cup after leading Christian Marx and Peter Bulkowski on a scavenger hunt around Sheboygan County looking for parts to fix Peter?s (now Christian?s) TR8 which ultimately led to a colorful but happy ending. Buy him a beer at the Cup next year and he?ll gladly retell the story. * *Brian actively campaigns a 1965 Cheetah Roadster and a 1967 Plymouth Barracuda in Vintage Racing events and hopes to have both of them at Road America next July to keep him busy in between Kastner Cup duties. He finally was able to solidify his place as a true FOT member when he drove fellow FOT?er David Amys? Spitfire at the VSCDA Blackhawk Classic last month.* *All the best and more to come:* *Mark Alexander: 952.412.6683, markurthuralexander at gmail.com * *Brian Garcia: 847.452.2246, *cudapilot at comcast.net -- Mark Alexander ARE -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I think he runs 5" rims, 60 and 72 spoke and they are always breaking spokes. He always runs the skinny vintage Dunlops or Hoosier Vintage TDs too. He also drives at a less aggressive pace, usually 3/4 pack. I've lapped him a couple different times in my TR3. The wires have a .090" runout spec as acceptable. I think I got that spec from Moss Motors. That's a lot. So don't expect them ever to be vibration free. They do look awesome and of course period correct, but to me, the continuous maintenance is not worth the cost and effort.

And, before that several of us had tried to convince him to get at least some TR6 steel wheels if not old looking style Panasports or similar. I will join others that encourage you to not run wires. But, if you must, check each and every one of the 72 spokes at least every day of competition look for loose or broken ones. They were not designed for modern tires. Get a very small tack hammer and play them like a piano tuner. If one is loose it will not ring as it should btw, even TR6 steel wheels arent the perfect answer.

I have attended this event almost every year for about 25 years. This race weekend that has been selected for our tiny cars is something unique. This, my friends, is a showcase of the best. And somehow we are the chosen featured Marque. Frankly, it is an event featuring excess and awesomeness... Richness, beauty and spectacle. To have The Great unwashed... Welcomed and featured. Wow. We are lucky. The amount of spectators and auto enthusiasts that show up to Road America for the Hawk(Previously) Chicago Historics (previously) and the (now named) Weathertech International Challenge... number in the many thousands. The grandstands are full. The paddock is full. There are downtown race car parades and car shows for which the beautiful town of Elkhart Lake becomes something very special. There are Showers of champagne for the podium elite; And Loral wreaths and trophy?s are handed out by racing legends. As a life long Triumph guy... being showcased at this event means we have somehow Reached the big time. Open yourself up to the fact that this is no regional event. This is not a club event. This is big. Now of course Most of the fans will be cheering for me. But you too have a chance at epic glory. Behold. A chance to finally make the funny pages. Bring it to Road America in mid July 2023 We are A little league team at the World Series. A garage band at Madison Square Gardens. A TR4 at the Indy 500.

The chair position ideally should rotate each year to a person familiar with the local track and Triumph club contacts if possible.? This will make FOT a stronger (non) organization with a lot of qualified folks getting involved. Road American is on my bucket list of tracks and I can't wait to get there next year.? Thanks for the opportunity to serve with so many other FOT members on the 2021 and 2022 Kastner Cup Race Committees. Sincerely, Curt Johnston curt.johnston at comcast.net 707-249-1667 On 07/27/2022 3:01 PM Mark Alexander via Fot wrote: The 2022 event at Pittsburgh International Raceway (PIR) marked the 20st running of the Kastner Cup. As most of us are familiar, but for those new, the race celebrated the 70th year of Triumph sports car in competition. The Kastner Cup was named in recognition of the career accomplishment and legacy of R.W. ?Kas? Kastner who passed away on April 11, 2021 at the age of 92. Kas Kastner was one of the most influential individuals responsible for the racing success of Triumph sports cars from the late 1950?s through 1970 and beyond. To this day, his series of Competition Preparation Manuals are a must read for competitors in Triumph sports cars. Later in his career, Kastner directed the Nissan IMSA GTP team that won the manufacturers? championship three years in a row and the drivers? championship four years in a row; a remarkable achievement. As much is likely to be written in the coming weeks and months about the 2022 Kastner Cup it is worth mentioning the PIR race maintained the familiar quality of all previous 19 Kastner Cups; a competitive family reunion bringing in Triumphs and drivers from the United States, Canada, and Germany.? A big thanks to Curt Johnston for carrying on the legacy over the past 2 seasons for both the events at Portland International Raceway and Pittsburgh International Raceway.? Curt has not only maintained the legacy and spirit of the Kastner Cup but has also improved operational processes along the way. Speaking of last year?s Portland Kastner Cup? conversations yielded a common theme? with many drivers expressing the idea of Road America as the 2023 location of choice.? Getting the Kastner Cup back to the centrally located, storied, beautiful?.and very fast venue of Road America made complete sense.? 2023 will mark a full 10 years since the Kastner Cup was last held at Road America. ??The event in 2013 resulted in an incredible grid of 36 cars, consisting of four?TR3s, thirteen TR4s, two TR4As, two TR250s (including the famous Peter Brock and Kas Kastner created TR250K), three TR6s, four Spitfires, four GT6s, a TR8, a Peyote MKII Special, a Devin bodied TR4, and a TVR 2200S.? Solid evidence indicates we will have an even greater turn-out in 2023 to include many of the usual and important suspects from both coasts, across the US and Canada.? Moreover, we are currently coordinating efforts for drivers and/or cars from the UK, Germany, and Australia! Lots of positive social media chatter already.? Great to see so many excited to attend!? Of course, more information will follow, however,?here are a few key points in preparation for next year's?2023 Kastner Cup! Dates: July 14-16, 2023 Location: Road America Elkhart Lake, WI? Event:? Weathertech International Challenge (WIC) with Brian Redman -Known as one of the one of the largest Vintage Events in the country typically drawing 350 to 400+ race registrations Triumphs will be the featured Marque 2023 Kastner Cup Grand Marshall:? Joe Alexander Road America is repaving all 4 miles of racing surface after this season All cars will run in their respective classes for (3) qualifying sessions, (1) Qualifying Race, (1) Feature Race The Kastner cup will be on Sunday for all Triumphs and is in addition to the above Friday night concourse for race cars - drive your car from the track to Elkhart, park, and enjoy 2 hours of 5000 spectators walking among the cars and talking to the drivers.? For those that have not driven, or spectated at Road America the combined event of the ?Weathertech International Challenge is life changing. One last thing?. We are excited to announce Brian Garcia?s return as a Kastner Cup Co-Chair for the 2023 event!? Brian Garcia was the Event Chair for the 2017 Kastner Cup at Blackhawk Farms Raceway.? A self-proclaimed ?Friend of a Friend of Triumph?, Brian got involved with Triumphs crewing for Jason Ostrowski?s Friendly Ghost Racing GT6 in 2011.? The following year, he attended his first Kastner Cup at Road Atlanta and instantly liked the camaraderie he found in the FOT paddock.? He earned his nomination to FOT the following year at the Road America Kastner Cup after leading Christian Marx and Peter Bulkowski on a scavenger hunt around Sheboygan County looking for parts to fix Peter?s (now Christian?s) TR8 which ultimately led to a colorful but happy ending.? Buy him a beer at the Cup next year and he?ll gladly retell the story.? ? Brian actively campaigns a 1965 Cheetah Roadster and a 1967 Plymouth Barracuda in Vintage Racing events and hopes to have both of them at Road America next July to keep him busy in between Kastner Cup duties.? He finally was able to solidify his place as a true FOT member when he drove fellow FOT?er David Amys? Spitfire at the VSCDA Blackhawk Classic last month. ? All the best and more to come: ?

This may occur in June of 2023. Over the year, we will be looking at an equivalent replacement that will be presented at ROAD AMERICA. A great way to start a new era of the Kastner Cup Series.

Your enthusiasm shows through with everything that you have done to make these events successful. Your attention to detail is amazing and not a lot of people know what that has entailed because you do it so well. Your love for history, racing, and especially Triumphs shines through and is an inspiration to so many. I hope you know how important of a part you have played so the racers can have an event that is catered to their shared love of competition and is something that can be looked forward to and then talk about for years after the dust settles. Thank you so much for your leadership, your personality, and for being you. I can say that you are a colleague that I can call a great friend! Very nice work! Excellent job!!! I look forward to working with Mark and Brian and we will aspire to an event for the history books.

Your original box gives you a high gear of 3.75, which is close to the standard high in a TR rear. I don't know how long the straights are at that track, but if you can't get over 95mph with that ratio, something else is wrong.
