Joe,
Those are valid issues. As I said previously we are trying to address some of
the issues in the Modified Class and will have something new in the Shape of
Things to Come. There will always be Participants Choice.
Hey, I forgot to mention Race Cars! Everytime I go to the Vintage Races at
Mid Ohio I am really impressed with the quality of the restorations of Triumph
Race Cars. Some would beat the pants off the Showroom restorations. I sure
wish we could attract them to a VTR National. Maybe we could do one California
at, what is it, Laguna Seca or Sears Point Race Track. Mid Ohio would be
great for me.
Cheers,
Darrell
