Shawn, could you submit this for me? Or it could under your name, if you wish.


FOT,


Mike Cook had a nice article about the 1965 Spitfires being at Sebring. However, I think there was one innocent oversight in the reporting.


While the factory may have prepared the Spitfires, it was Kas who ran the team. Kas secured the drivers and was the Team Manager at Sebring.


If I am wrong about this, I can stand corrected by Mike and/or Kas.


I thought it was worthwhile mentioning. I did kind of a mental double take when I read the article.   BTW, Mike reports that he will be joining us at Summit Point. We are looking forward to seeing him there.
