Oh I know that SCCA has evolved from prodified to built-from-scratch "GT".  I 
was just wondering how far they go wrt allowing a change of driven wheels.  Of 
course NASCAR does it and SCCA's Trans-Am series does it so maybe it's not so 
odd.  I just didn't realize they allow it in club racing.

Wow.  I'd like to take a few laps in one of those rwd Minis!
