Thanks Brad,

It would be great for display, but small =E2=80=9Copen wheel cars=E2=80=9D o=
n the Kastner Cup grid would not be a good idea.=20

Just a reminder: only TRIUMPHS that ran during the KASTNER ERA are eligible f=
or the Kastner Cup.=20

This is THE KASTNER CUP, honoring Kas Kastner.

Brad, we hope you are able to bring your historic Spitfire.=20

Looks like Kastner Cup material to me.<br>

Following on from Brads share, I thought I might add a bit more detail <br>
regarding the Autosport mk2 1957 Canada Class/ 1960 Formula Junior race <br>=

car with her Standard Triumph spit based engine.<br>
<br>
The car was built by Autosport Equipment co. ltd in Cooksville Ontario <br>
originally as a Canda Class race car in 1957 using a modified Standard <br>
10 engine, Lotus 11 gearbox, Triumph Mayflower brakes and rear axle <br>
which was cut down to allow Chapman strut rear suspension using the <br>
drive shaft as the upper suspension arm. To lower the the center of <br>
gravity a chain drive drop box was fabricated to sit on the nose of the <br>=

diff and lower the prop shaft.<br>
