To get to know and be associated with Kas is one of the highlights of my
racing life.  I got into racing as a Triumph guy.  I started back in
college with my first daily driver TR250, got involved with friends, then a
club, then autocrossing and eventually vintage racing.  I have to admit I
didn't know about the Competition Department back in the day, or Group 44.
I think I might have known that Paul Newman raced a TR6. I was just too
young. When I started racing I was overjoyed to learn about the FoT and
meet like minded people over the "net".  I never expected to find such
common ground with other Triumph racers nor to meet such a great group of
leaders like Joe, Bill and so many others. After I met and got to know Kas
I viewed him much like a Triumph racing father figure. I've had my share of
ups and downs at K Cup events and somehow, when I broke I felt like I was
letting him down! Then there was Peggy.  Much the same. She was there to
console me after the problems.  I know everything has its time and time
will run out for all of us, but what a loss, those two.  I am proud to have
known them both and better for it.

Count me in for $100.00 or more if it is needed.
