My understanding is VSCCA doesn't allow Bugeyes at all, even though quite a few
beat their Dec 31 1959 cut-off date. HSR is another matter. I've often
wondered if they (VSCCA) would accept my unique, Healey Cape built,
Falcon-bodied Sprite in the sports racer class, even being able to prove it 1st
race was Dec 59 Nassau Speed Weeks.

changed for the spectator and the entrant with a pre 70's racer.

As a Healey guy myself (hence, "HealeyRic") the Team Healey Challenge was the
highlight of my LRP spectating and brings up one more gripe about this year's
event:
Can an event really be called "vintage" if there is not one bugeye Sprite
racing?
