Hey Amici,

That's a great group on Facebook for Spitfire racers...join up if you
haven't already.

https://www.facebook.com/groups/745974565823060/

What a cool car...and fit for a Kastner Cup appearance. How great would it
be to have a 1960 Autosport Formula Junior car on the grid for Kastner Cup!

Cheers,


*Brad Eells*
*Chino CA*
*#72 FP 1969 Triumph Spitfire Mk3*
*#35 DP 1962 Triumph TR4*
*1965 Triumph TR4A IRS...for the road!*
