There is a lot to know. Suggest the SCCA web site. I think it is just SCCA.com or SCCA.org. Lots of stuff there. L.D.

In my drivers meetings at SOVREN I try to stress several salient points that I think differentiate Vintage from SCCA or Pro racing. First, the cars are the show. If you want your driving skill to be

Hi Tom, Have to respectfully disagree with you on your basic presumption on the GCR. As long as I can remember (1963 or so) the GCR has clearly stated in the first few lines that the rules are strict

Susan, I was not really worried about Doug, nor the other lawyers on line, but I did have the worry that his "logic" might contaminate some real persons thinking and lead them astray. Cheers, L.D.
