[Fot] The Eagle Has Landed-European Kastner Cup

[Keith Files]

What more is there to say, we arrived back yesterday evening with the
broadest grins you could imagine. This was a magnificent event and I take my
hat off to Chris for pulling this all together; a great job Chris.

Kas and Peg amaze me, a 26 hour trip from the US and yet they looked as
fresh as anything and were involved in everything from the word go; you guys
are real heroes to us.

Josh, Steve and me had a great time in the car, the car ran brilliantly
throughout other than a slight lack of brakes after 2 hours and we came home
with a pot and stories to tell.

We will be back again I am sure.

Thanks again to Chris and the German TR group for making us all so welcome
and making it a memorable event.

Keith.

Great people out there in Germany .... really, very special bunch.

I just got home and parked 3VC in the garage after a rapid dash back from
Germany, through Belgium and northern France. What a weekend ! even managed
to find all the speed traps on the E40 and stay out of their way all the way
home.

And a very special thanks to Chris for all the hard work he put into making
this happen in Europe. No one else could have done this and it was a
pleasure to have his company and that of Kas and Peggy all weekend. Lots and
lots of laughs. Im sure the other guys from the UK will say the same but ill
leave that to them - and a big hurrah for Keith & Josh Files and Steve Hall
who took home a pot with their triple driven TR6.

Im still remembering the drive of my life, over a big fat Gin; first time in
round the Nordschliefe in my existence, in the pouring rain, sideways
mainly, with a rally car on 60 spoke wires and road tyres ...... now ill be
telling that story for a long time.

All the best, let us know when the Eagles land back in California.

Regards Tony
