Tom,
I ran at the initial VDCA event at Roebling Road and had a blast ... how do
you say "too much track time"? No such thing! Great folks and well
organized. I think they will have bigger fields in the future and their
philosophy is great ... just wish my car fit a little better.
To continue to run with them, I have to modify my '64 Mini Cooper to fit the
'67 SCCA C-Sedan specs. I would like to do that, but to get there I
literally have to restore the car and re-mod it to period specs. Having said
that ... I plan to accomplish that; however, that means I will be thoroughly
thrashed at HSR and SVRA events (nothing new).
As far as the other details ... I think they are coming. Stay posted.
