Nothing short of life altering.The Details:Kastner Cup 2015/Jefferson 500 Race Weekend
May 14th – May 17th, 2015
Summit Point Motorsports Park, Summit Point, West Virginia
Held in conjunction with the ever famous Jefferson 500 vintage race weekend brought to you by VRG (Vintage Racing Group), the Kastner Cup is an exclusive race for Triumph or Triumph powered vintage race prepared cars. Special guest of honor Kas Kastner himself will make the decision of who will be subjugator of such a coveted prize as the Kastner Cup. His selection for the Kastner Cup champion is based on track performance, presentation of the car, and enthusiasm in vintage racing and not necessarily the race winner. The champion is announced directly after the Kastner Cup’s checkered flag is brandished.The Jefferson 500:The Jefferson 500 race weekend promises to be packed full of vintage racing and festivities. This year’s Grand Marshal is Brian Redman. The Jefferson 500 has evolved into one of the most respected vintage races in the Northeast. For the past 20 years, it has consistently fielded 200 plus vintage racers eager to bask in the excitement that the Summit Point Circuit provides with upwards of 8 race groups. Triumphs are the featured Marque for the weekend, feeling right at home on this curvilineal raceway.

These are performance based awards brought to you by Snook’s Dream Cars with engraved classes on each award.Specials/Triumph Powered

TR250/5/6These promise to be the awards that all the racers want. We all want to impress the ladies, but to impress the first lady of Triumph, the racers really need to be dressed to impress, bring their finest skills, and perform with all the right stuff. I imagine these awards will not be easy to win.If you are a spectator, there are many attractions to add to the vintage racing festivities. Starting with up close and personal “old school” facilities with great points of view from just about every angle, full access to the pits, cars, and racers, ample camping at the track, and of course an accompanying car show brought to you by Country Roads Car Club held in the backdrop of the 1.7 mile Summit Point Circuit.Fourth Annual Country Roads Car Club Car Show
