I do agree, but I'm talking about a change that will effect the 3CP cars
only. I only think there are two or three TR4's in that class as everyone
else is running 3DP. This has nothing to do with those cars.


As far as I know, putting webers on a a TR4 produces a class of car that was
never in production racing, it was however in D-Modified, where I'm sure the
rules were a little more liberal (wider wheels and minimum weight rules? I
hope Kas chimes in). So now my questions becomes, can we prepare to the
D-Modified rule set and still be eligible for 3CP? For the "in the spirit"
folk, it' would be closer to fact than bolting webers on a DP car and
calling it a "CP" car.

"Remember folks, we are not racing for a National Championship in vintage
racing. All we get is the satisfaction of competing, and if we are lucky,
and
have prepared well, a pot metal car on a stick at the end of the weekend."

It is however still racing. If no one thinks the front runners aren't
testing, constantly tweaking, showing up with the best cars within the rule
set, and driving them at 10/10's, then they are mistaken. . A lot of those
guys were front runners in SCCA and IMSA, and that's the ONLY way they know
how to go racing. Just like playing games in gym class... somebody has to
win.
