[Tigers] sad weekend

[michael king]

I think that is not correct.... From what I understand they were not
invited.

Lots of the BP tigers that usually run were running in other events only
weeks before , Tom Sakai Dan Walters etc.. they were all on the usual 13x7"
setup...

I think the grid suffered for not having the tigers..  apart from a couple
of ISO ( bizz and rivolta) maybe an xke? it was a vette, stang and cobra
demonstration... How many gt350's does one need in a race... ?
