<span style=3D"font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">This is several d=
ays overdue but as typically happens the real world was waiting to bash me o=
ver the head as soon as I got back from Road America and I've been playing c=
atch up all week. I wanted to take a moment to thank each and every on=
e of you that attended the Kastner Cup last weekend. All that were the=
re can attest to the fact that this was no small event. With 500+ cars=
and thousands of spectators it is difficult for a group to stand out but we=
did. =46rom the cars on display at the welcome dinner, to the FOT mem=
bers involved with and honored at the HOF induction, to the parade and conco=
urse Friday night, and all weekend on the track you shined in the spotlight.=
I hope you enjoyed your time there. I can tell you first hand t=
hat we made a great impression on the Road America staff as I'd knew we woul=
d. </span>

<span style=3D"font-family: helvetica; font-size: 12pt;">Thanks too to al=
l that supported the event through your donations of time, materials, and/or=
labor. There are a lot of moving pieces involved in executing a good e=
vent and it takes a village. The event would not have happened without=
you. I personally wish I would have had more time to hang out with al=
l of you but my own Vintage ride demanded a lot of my time and attention las=
t weekend as they are prone to do. It was great to meet so many of you=
though and I look forward to seeing you at other events in the future. =
; Big thanks to my co-chair Mark Alexander for all of his efforts over the p=
ast year to help bring all of this together. It started with a phone call fr=
om him to me when I was on my way to GingerMan in April of last year. I=
think we met our expectations, Mark. Thanks to our special guests Pet=
er Brock and Bob Johns for gracing us with their presence, history, and insi=
ght that made the event all that much more special. Thanks to Shawn Frank fo=
r his time spent capturing the event for all to enjoy in the future. A=
nd finally thanks to Joe Alexander for being our Grand Marshal and keeping K=
as' spirit alive. He would have been proud of you last weekend and of a=
ll of you that raced. Exquisite cars and racing all weekend long. =
