<div class="PlainText">As the person who innocently started this thread on the subject of the
<br>
readily available reproduction steel 16P calipers, a part I can't <br>
construe how anybody could call a cheater part, I'll add my two cents...<br>
<br>
Tire technology moved Vintage Racing to a place that we can't go back <br>
from. Like it or not, in order to keep us safe at the speeds these new <br>
tires allow us to go, you need to get with the program or take your <br>
chances. Even the venerable Hoosier Vintage TD bias ply tire can be <br>
really fast in the right hands and we have proof many cars lost wheels <br>
running Vintage TD's. Safety enhancements were needed, and the gray area <br>
between whats a safety enhancement and a speed enhancement will always <br>
be the heart of the debate.<br>
<br>
As I am now taking care of Old Blue, Bill Dentinger's TR3, a car that <br>
has been considered the most vintage correct TR3 running in the States, <br>
this is an issue I have personally been grappling with. It became <br>
crystal clear to me that to be comfortable running the car at any level, <br>
there were some things they did "back in the day" that just don't cut it <br>
any more. Updating some bits to make sure all the wheels stay on the car <br>
is just common sense. Taking it beyond that, there lies the conundrum... <br>
For what it's worth, under my watch Old Blue will run worm and peg <br>
steering, 87mm bore, a Triumph gearbox, and as many of Bill's original <br>
Triumph Competition Dept. bits as I can. Good fun.<br>
<br>
Henry<br>
