Stag Stags & the Kastner Cup Races Topeka, KS Aug 19

Hi All,

I am wondering how many folks are going to the Friends of Triumph Kastner Cup Races in Topeka Kansas August 19-22 (featured race info https://www.heartlandvintageracing.com/) where Triumph is the featured Marque?

This is a convenient day's drive from a lot of places in the Central USA, and across a weekend too!

I'd like to see a strong showing of ALL Triumphs including Triumph Stags show up in the Heartland as there has not been a good gathering of "the herd" in several years now, certainly not one exceeding a count close to 24 Stags !! It is well past the time for new things to happen in the long term support and enjoyment of our cars.

There are easily over 100 Stags within a days drive of Topeka (not to mention many hundreds of other Triumphs) ... so it would be a very convenient gathering of the herd, we could coordinate a spot in the race paddocks reserved just for Triumph Stags smack dab in the middle of FoT, maybe have Uncle Jack as the center piece with all the TTA stickers ?? How appropriate!!

If you are planning on attending, want to talk Triumphs, Triumph Stags, coordinating new Triumph Stag support in North America including herding options, please contact me off list and do actively continue this discussion on the Forums!

Cheers!
 
ain't nobody going??
 
Hi Glenn, my brother and I are coming down Sunday from Nebraska, I had hped my TR250 woud be done, but while I have had it on the road it is not ready for a 400 ,ile round truip yet.

There will be a few others from the Flatwater Austin Healey club of easter Nebraska as well, we are an all British Club, but named Austin Healey because we are a chapter of the national AH club, anyway lots of Triumphs in the club, but I am not aware of a running Stag, not sure what people might have squirreled away in their garages though.

I am very much looking forward to it.

I forgot the real camera, just had the phone, didn' get many pics. It was HOT I think the heat kept attendance down. I had a good time don't get me wrong, and there were lots of tr4s, as well as some tr3s spits and tr6s racing, some of the other classes were a little thin. Not a huge spectator turnout either, I think sponsors/organizers may have been a little disappointed.

Too bad no photos. Yep, it was the wrong time of the year to get people into Kansas for recreation, way too hot.

Unfortunately I could not get away to roast in the summer Kansas heat, but the Stag has done that trip in the summer at least 4 times ...

Running Stags in Nebraska? Bob Wertheim in Omaha has one.
