Bill,
I didn't know about that history in VARA or the rule concerning the VW's. I
remember running against that Beetle at Tustin a couple of years ago. I
thought I'd get him on the back straight every lap and would have if it had
been a half-mile longer. That was no standard 1300 engine!
The Ghia driver I mentioned to Joe ran the car (listed as a '64) at
Buttonwillow in October in a combined FP/GP group. He/She seemed to have some
trouble getting out of his/her own way, tho. VARA must have had a change of
heart in this case.
