Probably, but I don't believe it was never approved and/or allowed to race at 
any sanctioned events.  

I am sure it hurt poor Bob Kamholz' feelings, as he was proud of the car, but 
truth be told it was scary looking (even before you turned it on), and even 
if it could have 'passed Tech', the VSCDA had no real place for it.  Seems to 
me Bob also had some sort of exotic Triumph powered special as well.  If I 
remember, it was exotic, but also needed tons of renovation and  restoration.  

I used to see him often in the 1980s and early 1990s.  I first met Bob at an 
autocross he was running.  He was very enthusiastic, and had set the whole 
thing up himself.  I remember him as being a very special 'Character'.  Very 
likable.  Now that they have this Reality TV, I think he and his family could 
be 
making a fortune.  Hell...he could afford to go racing like he really wanted 
to.  I miss him.
