[Fot] To cap this off

[marty]

I have pondered that myself as I might be foolish enough to try this some day.
It would be neat if those that have these under their belts could put together
a "to do" list of sorts of things that should be taken care of, things that
you would have done different etc.. I would think these events have a bunch in
common and it would be beneficial to the uninitiated. Just thinking out loud
here :)

which is not the midwest nor the middle west. A National puller by Kastner's
request for this event should be a race chair from the east.

it...a good track East of Road america is being requested by Kas... From my
midwest perspective... You have to read between a pretty basic line to
exactify Kas's request.

region, period.

midwest FOT'ers. Grattan, Blackhawk, indy, mid ohio likely done.
>> Quite frankly, I see vir and summit point as the only race in the east
mentioned so far. So if you want ANYTHING to happen east of the rockies....
Get a program together and make a pitch. Otherwise the event will (strait from
the horse's mouth) travel west. Where it is always warm, beautiful, flowering,
paddle board accessible and well... pretty damn nice. Riddled with engine
rooms, hot fab shops, bikini's, speedos, wetsuits and surf boards... And more
than a few fast Triumphs!

>> Ya'll have to have (or make) some kind of connection with a club or
sanctioning body to get this process on "track". And, that person can make
anything happen.
>> Doing so would be full of FOT rewards and full of self-satisfaction.
