The Kastner Cup is a race held each year at a different race track across the United States and Canada, specifically for Triumph and Triumph powered race prepared cars. The Kastner Cup winner does not get any money and no points towards a championship. The true prize is the Kastner Cup trophy being handed to the winner by R.W. “Kas” Kastner himself. This is a short report od the 17th edition which was held in the Spring of 2019.
