[Spridgets] Big Healey question

[Kitterer Bob]

While I hope there is a certain level of tongue and cheek in this  
comment in my experience this has been the exception rather than the  
rule.  I've been active in both the local Healey club an for a while  
in the national AHCA.  Both have been open and welcomed Sprites,  
Nasty Boys, Jenson Healeys and Healey boats.  Both have classes for  
these as well as the various big and little Healeys in all of their  
events.  At least here in SOCA there are several very nice Nasty  
Boys.  Granted that these Nasty Boys were built from bits and pieces  
rather than cutting up a salvage car.  It seem to me to be unfair as  
well as nonproductive to criticize an entire group over the actions  
of a few.

Just my  two cents.
