[Kcup] [BULK] Re: Kastner Cup. 2014

[Henry Frye]

Bob,

I think scheduling the Kcup feature race on Saturday gives us a MUCH
better chance of having a bigger grid. By Sunday our attrition rate can
be this side of embarrassing. 

A Friday practice and Saturday feature would be great, but is sounds
like the session count is so high the all Triumph practice might be
overkill!
