FoT Members,

Our plans for the 2018 Kastner Cup are on schedule and coming along well.
Here is an update and it is time to REGISTER

Kastner Cup Race
This year?s event will be held in conjunction with the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand 
Prix.
The dates are July 6th ? 7th ? 8h 2018.
The Kastner Cup race will be held Saturday afternoon around 4:00 pm.
It is scheduled to be a 40-minute race, so plan your tires accordingly.

Track
Our host track will be Pittsburgh International Raceway, a 2.9 mile track 
located about 35 miles north of Pittsburgh. For track details and information, 
visit:   
www.pittrace.com<https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=http://www.pittrace.com/&c=E,1,u4Kq-LrDKgHkeiMw8FCkZmREO1Y-K2GbEHntrm9JxR21MWAFlSbS1qE4h9yCQhXL6vLjLSWKQ5MSASuMX8TNZ01bOrCU1t2HrbZ8sJLvbuBRKLOVvw0M&typo=1>
Pitt Race is an excellent facility, with large run off areas, a 100 foot 
elevation change, two long straights, paved paddocks, clean bathrooms and 
shower facilities. I think you will find it a great facility for our event.

The PVGP runs two back to back race weekends.
The second weekend is the following weekend July 14 & 15 and is a street race 
in Pittsburgh?s Schenley Park. This race runs on 2.33 miles of Pittsburgh city 
streets in Schenley Park and is the longest running vintage street race in 
America. For photos of the event visit:

We have arranged for any Triumph driver entering both weekends to receive a 
free entry into the Axis vs. Allies race at Schenley on Saturday, July 14 (a 
$75 value). This special race on Saturday pits the British cars against the 
German and Italian cars.

This is shaping up to be an excellent event and I look forward to seeing you in 
July.
