[Kcup] Aussie Container?

[Casey Annis]

Hi Guys,
	I'm still in AUS, but can tell you that the Triumph guys here were  
pretty fired up about the Challenge idea. They think that they could  
likely get a container of cars (6 cars) depending on the arrangements  
and costs. Typically they've been able to bring containers of cars  
down here and organize a package deal where a driver gets their entry,  
car transport etc for about $1500. They think that something like that  
would work. The harder part is getting their cars/container from the  
port of entry to the track(s) and back. They'd want to do Laguna, but  
probably also Buttonwillow and the Sonoma Historics. Anyway, we can  
discuss when I get back home, but they are keen to do it, if it can  
all work out.
	On the sponsorship front, I'm afraid that both of the insurance  
companies that I thought would bite are cutting back by about 25% this  
year, so they no longer are looking like good prospects. I'll put my  
thinking helmet on, but there's a lot of mixed signals out there in  
the automotive corporate world right now, so I'm not entirely sure if  
things are looking up or more grim for the coming year.
	Keep me in your thoughts on Tuesday, as I think I'm flying back home  
on one of the first flights of the Airbus A380 since the engines fell  
off!
All the best
Casey
