<p>I am a little behind on my emails but have been hard at work ironing out the final details for this weekend. Plus it's always a wonder how work related drama and chaos as drawn to race weekends like magnets making it that much more challenging to try to
play weekend warrior racer. But I digress...<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>First off I have had a few people ask me if they can bring anything for the hospitality area. I should have thought of this sooner but I was thinking it would be great if anyone that partakes in such libations would bring a sample of their favorite local
beer so that the selections would be a bit more eclectic and representative of our group that just what I am bringing. As far as food, Friday evening Beady Eye Racing will be putting on their wine and cheese spread in the FOT paddock. VSCDA is also providing
pizza in the Blackhawk pavilion. Saturday night VSCDA is hosting a dinner at 6:30. Each driver gets a ticket for that dinner but crew/guests needed tickets purchased (this was in the event registration). Tickets can also be purchased at registration. <br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><strong>Next - Registration: </strong>Registration opens at 4 p.m. on Thursday. There are 175 cars pre-registered for this event so there will be lines. Please be patient. Nobody will be allowed through the gates to enter the paddock before that time.
I will have handouts at registration that are specifically for the FOT group and will contain information pertinent only to us. </p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><strong>FOT Paddock:</strong> When you cross the track and enter the Paddock, the FOT paddock will be to the left inside of turn 6A. There will be signs indicating this. I along with some helpers will have green construction vests on to make us easier
to spot. We'll be running around the paddock so grab us if you have questions on where or how to park. Also - my cell number is 847-452-2246. Call me throughout the weekend if you need help. Paddock spaces are not marked off or reserved. You can set up
anywhere in the designated area. There are limited power hookups available. They are all at the same spot which will be next to the hospitality tent so be sure you have long extension cords if you are going to try to grab one.
<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><strong></strong><strong>T Shirts: </strong>As was discussed on the list several weeks ago, every driver in the Kastner Cup receives an Event T-Shirt from VSCDA as part of the entry which features the Kastner Cup artwork. Drivers - you will get your shirt
at registration. All others that were ordered through me I will be picking up and will need to separate / distribute. I will try to have those available by the gathering Friday night.
<br>
</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p><strong>General Schedule: </strong>You will receive final schedules at registration and I will have all Triumph - related times posted in the FOT paddock. In general, here is how the weekend will progress:<br>

<p><strong>Finally - thanks!</strong><br>
</p>
<p><strong><br>
</strong></p>
<p>I want to thank all of you making the trip to Blackhawk Farms. This is a great little track that is perfect for small prod cars. More importantly it's home to a group of us on FOT that cut our teeth at this track and we are all excited to share it with
you. I hope all of you have a successful weekend on track but just as importantly I hope it's a memorable experience at the track as well. Thanks too to those of you that donated some funds to help bring all of this together. For a club that's not a club
we seem to be pretty damn good and making things happen. Thanks finally to Kas and Peggy for supporting a group of busted knuckle racers that have rallied around what Kas made happen back in an era of racing that I wish I had been around to experience. Through
vintage racing and groups like FOT, it seems time travel is possible even if it's only for a spell.
