The unofficial invitation committee on creating a MidOhio 2002 invitation
list met this morning at Starbucks in LaJolla, California. After some
admittedly needed sips of an expresso drink and no discussion, the committee
(of one) voted unanimously to add you (as well as all other FOT members to
its ranks).
Your responsibility at this time is very simple. Compile a list of
Triumph racers, race mechanics, Triumph company officials, current racers of
vintage Triumphs and key Triumph suppliers for the MidOhio event by the end
of October. At the end of October, you will asked to deliver that list to a
yet undetermined website address.
Without "factory" support, we must mount a grassroots campaign. The
campaign plan is simple. We will contact the people on the list which this
FOT committee creates, asking them in turn to suggest other people who should
be invited. We have about 130 plus people on the FOT list, if the average
person gives us 10 names, we have about 1300 people to contact. If the 1300
people provide an additional 5 names each, we would theoretically reached
5,000 to 10,000. Certainly, with those numbers, we should penetrate the core
of the Triumph people who should be invited.
(If someone has a better plan, the invitation committee is open to
suggestions.)
Your second responsibility, this committee is still working on finding
Grand Marshall Kas Kastner's team racecars that will participate in the
event. Vernon tells me that he plans to bring one of his racecars, so Kas
will not need to go around the course in one of the Nissan GTP car. Kas's
Vitesse is for sale on race-cars.com. And we have a lead as to the location
of one other car.
Again My Congratulations on Your Election to the 50th Invitation "Committee"
