I'm looking for a pair of black latch and link type lap belts, preferably 3" wide. Money has been tight so very good condition out of date will be OK.

As in, what are the rules of the activity your buyer intends? I have sold outdated racing harnesses to autocrossers, rules for which have no expiration dates. The harness is still dated (don't take the tag off!). If the guy tries to take it racing, a tech inspector will (should) check it. Caveat emptor! Many times the autocrosser just wants to "update" from the car's OEM belts. FWIW, I went racing (SCCA) in 1977-80. Then "life" intruded and I didn?t race again until 1995. I autocrossed that whole time using belts dated 1977. Had to buy new ones in '95, and every three years after that. --Rocky Entriken -----Original Message----- From: John H.

It is about half the price of SFI new belts. Seems unlikely to me that any non-manufacturer would do it, as they are also certifying the old hardware.

You can see the list at the VSCDA event page https://vscda.org/events/blackhawk-vintage/. It's a little odd but if you click Register (which won't force you to register) and then Entries at the top, you'll see a large spreadsheet with familiar names. See you there! The Great Rockton Fire should be history by then, but you probably want to avoid Prairie Hill Road.

These are the business cards made for each car. Remember, SVRA is offering a half price deal of $275 for Kastner entries, so if you can get there this will be a fun weekend at a reasonable cost. The FOT fee is $50, half off last year. Also, the Race Committee will provide a Kastner Cup tee shirt, poster, drivers suit patch, car dash plaques, and social events each night. This is all included with your registration! We also have really nice Peggy Kastner 1st in Class award plaques to hand out. Thursday night will be the Celebration of Life for Kas, and Friday Joe is planning a Hall of Fame reception. The group photo this year will be on track, so that will be cool picture. For the Hero Card, submit a quality photo with your SVRA entry or you can send an image directly to "pam@ svra.com" and she will upload it. If all else fails, mail a photo to Pam Shatraw at 1140 Cobblestone St. Salinas, CA 93905. Thanks! Hope to see you there!

I would say lead time, including correspondence, pricing and machining is at best 5-6 weeks, and that assumes they have the right wheel ?blank? in stock that they can drill for your bolt pattern and machine the backspace as needed. This is not a criticism of the company - it?s like everything else right now - they had limited business for nine months, now everything is going gangbusters, supplies are difficult and they can?t hire enough qualified people - this is what he told me. However, price is very fair (my 13x6 wheels were only $136 each, plus $100 for shipping for all four), and the race wheels have steel inserts for the lug nut bearing surface, and come with lug nuts. The exchange rate is in our favor right now!

Lew Spencer LA Morgan dealer, and Morgan and Cobra racer who raced with and against Kas back in the day, in his Morgan +4 #45 and in numerous sailing regattas, passed away in 2019.

Absent any request for that payment, I will assume that I will pay that directly to the K Cup organizers at the race... I am looking forward with great anticipation to once again chasing you, Charly Mitchel, Jeff Quick and other of the Northwest Triumph contingent around the track, as usual! Hopefully, we will see our West Coast friends also, and that there will be an opportunity to shake hands with many of the legendary racers whose names appear so regularly on the pages of FoT!

A little history: Constructed at a cost of $75,000.00 in factory monies during 1970 this ex-Factory Trans/Am race car is a one off Factory race car from Triumph and British Leyland. Developed under the guidance of West Coast Triumph Racing Development head, Kas Kastner. Kastner wrote the book on Triumph Performance and was later highly instrumental for his heading the impressive Nissan GTP program that won many championships in IMSA. In an effort to market the Triumph Vitesse in America this British Leyland Engineering Department chassis was shipped to the Kastner/Brophy Racing shop (British Leland's West Coast Competition Arm) in California in 1970 to be converted into the one and only Triumph Factory Trans/Am Race Car. Having competed in four races in 1971 with Triumph National Champion, Carl Swanson driving, British Leyland dropped the Vitesse line from it's production. As a result the project was dropped after the 1971 season. Multi-time SCCA National Champion, Ric Cline acquired the Trans/Am car and competed with it in SCCA Nationals for several years nearly winning the national championship twice in B-Sedan. Cline sold the Vitesse to Arno Frosh of South Carolina, who campaigned the car continually until 1988 in SCCA Nationals. Arno sold the car to Ralph Thomas, who owned car for a number of years and restored it to the original livery. Ralph sold it to Butch Gilbert and I bought it from Butch?s wife after he passed away. The Vitesse is highly competitive today, for it sports a 6 cylinder, 2.5 liter with triple 45mm DCOE Webers. It produces 245HP at 7200 RPM. Houseman constructed the 5 speed, dog ring gearbox and it is equipped with a Quaiff Diff. All mechanicals are fresh! Four wheel dics brakes and four wheel independant suspension, developed by Kastner, make this unbeatable through the turns. It still has it's original wooden dash and door panels. Check out the beautifully hand formed fender arches and fuel fill points. It is masterfully constructed and incredibly solid race car. Overall the car has never been in a crash and is in very fine condition. It is British Leyland Triumph White, with Porsche Guards Red and Ferrari Chrome Yellow in color. It has it's original design graphics as well as the original SCCA log Book, SVRA/HSR log books and it's original Trans/Am Homologation documents. I?ve had it for a few years now and have gone through everything. Truly ready to race with just an oil change and maybe some new tires (probably a good idea). A true one of a kind that gets attention everywhere it goes and acceptance at all major vintage events. Very competitive in B-Sedan or 2.5l Trans-Am. Two sets of wheels, some spare bodywork, and a small spares package of miscellaneous items. I also have the original Kastner-Brophy hydraulic jack used during the Trans-Am season (thanks Alan and Brad)! Here?s a video my friend Steve Belfer made from the VARA race last November: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QC5SxoekqCg And here?s a photo. You can find many more by googling ?Candy Box Vitesse.? More photos and info available upon request. Asking $49,400. Thanks, Chuck Gee (760) 712-6540 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I even have a shiny new SVRA license, good through 6/9/2023. Potentially this will be my last race, but certainly not Peyote?s. I will be selling Peyote this year. Tony Garmey at Horizon Racing is going through it now, it goes on the dyno in a few days. I?m putting together extensive documentation of its outrageous history. There can?t be many cars that have been raced as as long, as frequently, by as many owners. Vast amounts of mojo in this crazy little car. My collection if race results is inches thick?and that?s just me. The first consideration will be that whoever buys it will keep racing it. No collectors need apply. I doubt most collectors of shiny auto toys would be interested, but who knows. Oddly enough, even though I turned 74 this year my decision has nothing to do with age, and it?s not financially motivated. Mostly, like my hero Mr. Kastner, it?s just that I?ve become addicted to doing things in the water?mostly wing foiling. With Peyote gone I?ll turn my attention to the Ambro 001, and finish it. I may race it a few times just for the hell of it, but that will probably head off to a new home as well. Then I need to decide what to do with my project TR3. eTR3? Fast street car? Something else? Then there?s the dune buggy, all these motorcycles, and my incredibly stupid GMC Motorhome project. I don?t lack for things to attempt to focus my ADHD attention upon.

I'm looking for a pair of black latch and link type lap belts, preferably 3" wide. Money has been tight so very good condition out of date will be OK.

As in, what are the rules of the activity your buyer intends? I have sold outdated racing harnesses to autocrossers, rules for which have no expiration dates. The harness is still dated (don't take the tag off!). If the guy tries to take it racing, a tech inspector will (should) check it. Caveat emptor! Many times the autocrosser just wants to "update" from the car's OEM belts. FWIW, I went racing (SCCA) in 1977-80. Then "life" intruded and I didn?t race again until 1995. I autocrossed that whole time using belts dated 1977. Had to buy new ones in '95, and every three years after that. --Rocky Entriken -----Original Message----- From: John H.

It is about half the price of SFI new belts. Seems unlikely to me that any non-manufacturer would do it, as they are also certifying the old hardware.

You can see the list at the VSCDA event page https://vscda.org/events/blackhawk-vintage/. It's a little odd but if you click Register (which won't force you to register) and then Entries at the top, you'll see a large spreadsheet with familiar names. See you there! The Great Rockton Fire should be history by then, but you probably want to avoid Prairie Hill Road.

These are the business cards made for each car. Remember, SVRA is offering a half price deal of $275 for Kastner entries, so if you can get there this will be a fun weekend at a reasonable cost. The FOT fee is $50, half off last year. Also, the Race Committee will provide a Kastner Cup tee shirt, poster, drivers suit patch, car dash plaques, and social events each night. This is all included with your registration! We also have really nice Peggy Kastner 1st in Class award plaques to hand out. Thursday night will be the Celebration of Life for Kas, and Friday Joe is planning a Hall of Fame reception. The group photo this year will be on track, so that will be cool picture. For the Hero Card, submit a quality photo with your SVRA entry or you can send an image directly to "pam@ svra.com" and she will upload it. If all else fails, mail a photo to Pam Shatraw at 1140 Cobblestone St. Salinas, CA 93905. Thanks! Hope to see you there!

I would say lead time, including correspondence, pricing and machining is at best 5-6 weeks, and that assumes they have the right wheel ?blank? in stock that they can drill for your bolt pattern and machine the backspace as needed. This is not a criticism of the company - it?s like everything else right now - they had limited business for nine months, now everything is going gangbusters, supplies are difficult and they can?t hire enough qualified people - this is what he told me. However, price is very fair (my 13x6 wheels were only $136 each, plus $100 for shipping for all four), and the race wheels have steel inserts for the lug nut bearing surface, and come with lug nuts. The exchange rate is in our favor right now!

Lew Spencer LA Morgan dealer, and Morgan and Cobra racer who raced with and against Kas back in the day, in his Morgan +4 #45 and in numerous sailing regattas, passed away in 2019.

Absent any request for that payment, I will assume that I will pay that directly to the K Cup organizers at the race... I am looking forward with great anticipation to once again chasing you, Charly Mitchel, Jeff Quick and other of the Northwest Triumph contingent around the track, as usual! Hopefully, we will see our West Coast friends also, and that there will be an opportunity to shake hands with many of the legendary racers whose names appear so regularly on the pages of FoT!

A little history: Constructed at a cost of $75,000.00 in factory monies during 1970 this ex-Factory Trans/Am race car is a one off Factory race car from Triumph and British Leyland. Developed under the guidance of West Coast Triumph Racing Development head, Kas Kastner. Kastner wrote the book on Triumph Performance and was later highly instrumental for his heading the impressive Nissan GTP program that won many championships in IMSA. In an effort to market the Triumph Vitesse in America this British Leyland Engineering Department chassis was shipped to the Kastner/Brophy Racing shop (British Leland's West Coast Competition Arm) in California in 1970 to be converted into the one and only Triumph Factory Trans/Am Race Car. Having competed in four races in 1971 with Triumph National Champion, Carl Swanson driving, British Leyland dropped the Vitesse line from it's production. As a result the project was dropped after the 1971 season. Multi-time SCCA National Champion, Ric Cline acquired the Trans/Am car and competed with it in SCCA Nationals for several years nearly winning the national championship twice in B-Sedan. Cline sold the Vitesse to Arno Frosh of South Carolina, who campaigned the car continually until 1988 in SCCA Nationals. Arno sold the car to Ralph Thomas, who owned car for a number of years and restored it to the original livery. Ralph sold it to Butch Gilbert and I bought it from Butch?s wife after he passed away. The Vitesse is highly competitive today, for it sports a 6 cylinder, 2.5 liter with triple 45mm DCOE Webers. It produces 245HP at 7200 RPM. Houseman constructed the 5 speed, dog ring gearbox and it is equipped with a Quaiff Diff. All mechanicals are fresh! Four wheel dics brakes and four wheel independant suspension, developed by Kastner, make this unbeatable through the turns. It still has it's original wooden dash and door panels. Check out the beautifully hand formed fender arches and fuel fill points. It is masterfully constructed and incredibly solid race car. Overall the car has never been in a crash and is in very fine condition. It is British Leyland Triumph White, with Porsche Guards Red and Ferrari Chrome Yellow in color. It has it's original design graphics as well as the original SCCA log Book, SVRA/HSR log books and it's original Trans/Am Homologation documents. I?ve had it for a few years now and have gone through everything. Truly ready to race with just an oil change and maybe some new tires (probably a good idea). A true one of a kind that gets attention everywhere it goes and acceptance at all major vintage events. Very competitive in B-Sedan or 2.5l Trans-Am. Two sets of wheels, some spare bodywork, and a small spares package of miscellaneous items. I also have the original Kastner-Brophy hydraulic jack used during the Trans-Am season (thanks Alan and Brad)! Here?s a video my friend Steve Belfer made from the VARA race last November: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QC5SxoekqCg And here?s a photo. You can find many more by googling ?Candy Box Vitesse.? More photos and info available upon request. Asking $49,400. Thanks, Chuck Gee (760) 712-6540 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I even have a shiny new SVRA license, good through 6/9/2023. Potentially this will be my last race, but certainly not Peyote?s. I will be selling Peyote this year. Tony Garmey at Horizon Racing is going through it now, it goes on the dyno in a few days. I?m putting together extensive documentation of its outrageous history. There can?t be many cars that have been raced as as long, as frequently, by as many owners. Vast amounts of mojo in this crazy little car. My collection if race results is inches thick?and that?s just me. The first consideration will be that whoever buys it will keep racing it. No collectors need apply. I doubt most collectors of shiny auto toys would be interested, but who knows. Oddly enough, even though I turned 74 this year my decision has nothing to do with age, and it?s not financially motivated. Mostly, like my hero Mr. Kastner, it?s just that I?ve become addicted to doing things in the water?mostly wing foiling. With Peyote gone I?ll turn my attention to the Ambro 001, and finish it. I may race it a few times just for the hell of it, but that will probably head off to a new home as well. Then I need to decide what to do with my project TR3. eTR3? Fast street car? Something else? Then there?s the dune buggy, all these motorcycles, and my incredibly stupid GMC Motorhome project. I don?t lack for things to attempt to focus my ADHD attention upon.

I'm looking for a pair of black latch and link type lap belts, preferably 3" wide. Money has been tight so very good condition out of date will be OK.

As in, what are the rules of the activity your buyer intends? I have sold outdated racing harnesses to autocrossers, rules for which have no expiration dates. The harness is still dated (don't take the tag off!). If the guy tries to take it racing, a tech inspector will (should) check it. Caveat emptor! Many times the autocrosser just wants to "update" from the car's OEM belts. FWIW, I went racing (SCCA) in 1977-80. Then "life" intruded and I didn?t race again until 1995. I autocrossed that whole time using belts dated 1977. Had to buy new ones in '95, and every three years after that. --Rocky Entriken -----Original Message----- From: John H.

It is about half the price of SFI new belts. Seems unlikely to me that any non-manufacturer would do it, as they are also certifying the old hardware.

You can see the list at the VSCDA event page https://vscda.org/events/blackhawk-vintage/. It's a little odd but if you click Register (which won't force you to register) and then Entries at the top, you'll see a large spreadsheet with familiar names. See you there! The Great Rockton Fire should be history by then, but you probably want to avoid Prairie Hill Road.

These are the business cards made for each car. Remember, SVRA is offering a half price deal of $275 for Kastner entries, so if you can get there this will be a fun weekend at a reasonable cost. The FOT fee is $50, half off last year. Also, the Race Committee will provide a Kastner Cup tee shirt, poster, drivers suit patch, car dash plaques, and social events each night. This is all included with your registration! We also have really nice Peggy Kastner 1st in Class award plaques to hand out. Thursday night will be the Celebration of Life for Kas, and Friday Joe is planning a Hall of Fame reception. The group photo this year will be on track, so that will be cool picture. For the Hero Card, submit a quality photo with your SVRA entry or you can send an image directly to "pam@ svra.com" and she will upload it. If all else fails, mail a photo to Pam Shatraw at 1140 Cobblestone St. Salinas, CA 93905. Thanks! Hope to see you there!

I would say lead time, including correspondence, pricing and machining is at best 5-6 weeks, and that assumes they have the right wheel ?blank? in stock that they can drill for your bolt pattern and machine the backspace as needed. This is not a criticism of the company - it?s like everything else right now - they had limited business for nine months, now everything is going gangbusters, supplies are difficult and they can?t hire enough qualified people - this is what he told me. However, price is very fair (my 13x6 wheels were only $136 each, plus $100 for shipping for all four), and the race wheels have steel inserts for the lug nut bearing surface, and come with lug nuts. The exchange rate is in our favor right now!

Lew Spencer LA Morgan dealer, and Morgan and Cobra racer who raced with and against Kas back in the day, in his Morgan +4 #45 and in numerous sailing regattas, passed away in 2019.

Absent any request for that payment, I will assume that I will pay that directly to the K Cup organizers at the race... I am looking forward with great anticipation to once again chasing you, Charly Mitchel, Jeff Quick and other of the Northwest Triumph contingent around the track, as usual! Hopefully, we will see our West Coast friends also, and that there will be an opportunity to shake hands with many of the legendary racers whose names appear so regularly on the pages of FoT!

A little history: Constructed at a cost of $75,000.00 in factory monies during 1970 this ex-Factory Trans/Am race car is a one off Factory race car from Triumph and British Leyland. Developed under the guidance of West Coast Triumph Racing Development head, Kas Kastner. Kastner wrote the book on Triumph Performance and was later highly instrumental for his heading the impressive Nissan GTP program that won many championships in IMSA. In an effort to market the Triumph Vitesse in America this British Leyland Engineering Department chassis was shipped to the Kastner/Brophy Racing shop (British Leland's West Coast Competition Arm) in California in 1970 to be converted into the one and only Triumph Factory Trans/Am Race Car. Having competed in four races in 1971 with Triumph National Champion, Carl Swanson driving, British Leyland dropped the Vitesse line from it's production. As a result the project was dropped after the 1971 season. Multi-time SCCA National Champion, Ric Cline acquired the Trans/Am car and competed with it in SCCA Nationals for several years nearly winning the national championship twice in B-Sedan. Cline sold the Vitesse to Arno Frosh of South Carolina, who campaigned the car continually until 1988 in SCCA Nationals. Arno sold the car to Ralph Thomas, who owned car for a number of years and restored it to the original livery. Ralph sold it to Butch Gilbert and I bought it from Butch?s wife after he passed away. The Vitesse is highly competitive today, for it sports a 6 cylinder, 2.5 liter with triple 45mm DCOE Webers. It produces 245HP at 7200 RPM. Houseman constructed the 5 speed, dog ring gearbox and it is equipped with a Quaiff Diff. All mechanicals are fresh! Four wheel dics brakes and four wheel independant suspension, developed by Kastner, make this unbeatable through the turns. It still has it's original wooden dash and door panels. Check out the beautifully hand formed fender arches and fuel fill points. It is masterfully constructed and incredibly solid race car. Overall the car has never been in a crash and is in very fine condition. It is British Leyland Triumph White, with Porsche Guards Red and Ferrari Chrome Yellow in color. It has it's original design graphics as well as the original SCCA log Book, SVRA/HSR log books and it's original Trans/Am Homologation documents. I?ve had it for a few years now and have gone through everything. Truly ready to race with just an oil change and maybe some new tires (probably a good idea). A true one of a kind that gets attention everywhere it goes and acceptance at all major vintage events. Very competitive in B-Sedan or 2.5l Trans-Am. Two sets of wheels, some spare bodywork, and a small spares package of miscellaneous items. I also have the original Kastner-Brophy hydraulic jack used during the Trans-Am season (thanks Alan and Brad)! Here?s a video my friend Steve Belfer made from the VARA race last November: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QC5SxoekqCg And here?s a photo. You can find many more by googling ?Candy Box Vitesse.? More photos and info available upon request. Asking $49,400. Thanks, Chuck Gee (760) 712-6540 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

I even have a shiny new SVRA license, good through 6/9/2023. Potentially this will be my last race, but certainly not Peyote?s. I will be selling Peyote this year. Tony Garmey at Horizon Racing is going through it now, it goes on the dyno in a few days. I?m putting together extensive documentation of its outrageous history. There can?t be many cars that have been raced as as long, as frequently, by as many owners. Vast amounts of mojo in this crazy little car. My collection if race results is inches thick?and that?s just me. The first consideration will be that whoever buys it will keep racing it. No collectors need apply. I doubt most collectors of shiny auto toys would be interested, but who knows. Oddly enough, even though I turned 74 this year my decision has nothing to do with age, and it?s not financially motivated. Mostly, like my hero Mr. Kastner, it?s just that I?ve become addicted to doing things in the water?mostly wing foiling. With Peyote gone I?ll turn my attention to the Ambro 001, and finish it. I may race it a few times just for the hell of it, but that will probably head off to a new home as well. Then I need to decide what to do with my project TR3. eTR3? Fast street car? Something else? Then there?s the dune buggy, all these motorcycles, and my incredibly stupid GMC Motorhome project. I don?t lack for things to attempt to focus my ADHD attention upon.
