Sounds like I'm not the only one who's a bit grumpy
about the state of the rules in vintage racing. I know
my motivations for putting fibreglas fenders and apron
on my TR3 were not pure, but I have a really hard time
understanding why anyone would care. It's not easy to
find good tin.
It's not wheel-to-wheel racing that we are doing with
all the accompanying bragging rights. In most races in
any class there are a few cars on the track that lap
the field because they are legal late-period racers
that are so far beyond the rest of the class that
there will NEVER be a race for first. No one expects
to beat them--I'm just happy having my little local
race, passing and being passed by a close-matched
competitor.
