Sorry for the delay in getting these photos out. I have been battling some medical issues and also had to get The Vintage Triumph Magazine to the printer for publication, but plan to finish the entire field of cars now that is done.

I see Bob Tullius has made the Hall in 2015, but no mention of Kas. He belongs there. With as much dedication and years of entries that SCCA class Champions Sam Halkias, Hardy Prentice and Fletcher Williams put in they belong there too. I am no longer a member of the SCCA so I can't do this, but someone in our group surely can.

While I can agree emotionally that Kas belongs, what is needed is a formal nomination which includes a healthy recitation of what he has done in the sport. I do not know the details of his career well enough to nominate him myself. Don?t assume anybody knows anything about Kas, give as detailed a nomination as you can. Multiple nominations is good. Disclaimer: I?m not promising anything. Just advising about the process. I?ve only just been added to the committee and as yet have not even been advised about what I?ll be doing. I do know this ? once someone is nominated, the nomination stays on file for years. I was inducted in Class of 2023 after being nominated around 2020. Go to https://www.scca.com/halloffame.

The motorcycle laws require helmets, but they do not state a particular standard, only compliance with requirements set out by Snell or other standard-making bodies.
