<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> My report on the Kastner Cup weekend.
Thursday practice beautiful weather. About 40 Triumphs on site. Sam
Halkias,</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Mike Munson, Dick Stockton, Jerry Barker (63
Herald)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> among those. Super photo shoot with approx 45
cars</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> Friday Qualifiying race major item was Jerry
Barker breaking left rear axle. No spare on site, called his son in CA to send
spares overnite. Friday group 3 race Dick Stockton sat that one out. Top six
finishers were Alan Tosler with a 66 Lotus Elan (who would give Sam And Mike
Munson fits) Mike Munson, Henry Frye, Robert Lang,(with rookie stripes) Leo
Oddi, and Scott Janzen. Sam Halkias dropped out early which would be an
ongoing theme. 13 laps. Sat group 3 race Alan Tosler, Mike Munson, Dick
Stockton,Mark Wheatley,(after finishing only 5 laps on friday) Robert Lang (who
ran a 130.937) and James Dolan with Group 44 GT6. Sat group 3 race 2 Alan
Tosler, James Dolan, Robert Lang (who let Dolan slip by under yellow) Mark
Wheatley, Henry Frye, and Charlie Dolan. Only 7 laps, Sam Halkias and Mike
Munson only making 3 laps Mike breaking his diff chasing the Lotus. As of
mid day still no joy for Jerry Barker as UPS plane carrying axles delayed.
Luckily another competitor,Joe Wisnewski?donated his axles from early Spitfire
damaged in a friday group 4 race. With all that drama Kastner Cup Race delayed
til Sunday as skies let loose wind and rain deluge flooding track and the pits.
Sunday started off light showers that kept track slightly damp for the
8:45 am Kastner Cup Race. Sam Halkias was gone with Mike Munson on pole. Pace
car led field on 2 pace laps to highlight slick spots. After green flag
Mike Munson James Dolan and Robert Lang were leading with Mark Wheatley, Dick
Stockton and Tony Drews gaining quickly on the damp track. After about lap 5
rain picked up and James Dolan GT6 and Boyd Wagner TR6went off near the
Carousel. This brought out yellow then quickly black flags. Unfortunately Scott
Janzen,Dick Stockton, and Jerry Barker (who had been driving like a demon from
last place) saw them late and missed pit entrance coming up quickly on the
rest of the field pitting. That earned all three an early exit. After a cleanup
delay the field took off again for only a few more laps. From where I watched it
looked like a Mike Munson, Mark Wheatley Tony Drews Jeff Snook (TR3)
Robert Lang finish. Congratulations to all but specially Mark Wheatly and Robert
Lang for really strong weekends. Apologies to the other TR groups as it was a
busy weekend and I could not keep track of it all.</FONT></DIV>
