I have been racing for close on 10 years now - originally did some races   
with the SCCA in a MG Midget and have for the last 6 years campaigned a   
VW GTI on the pro-rally circuit. I am looking to supplement my pro-rally   
calendar with some vintage racing to fill in the gaps during the   
pro-rally season.

This year I hope to start racing with some form of vintage race   
association. I hope to do about 3 races this year and am looking at the   
following events:

Lime Rock Weekend during Labor day weekend
The Watkins Glen event during September
Something in the May time frame - I think there is one at Pocono

I already have my car ready, I am installing a slightly breathed on   
 engine over the next couple of weeks and the gearbox is currently being   
stripped to change some components. So essentially the car is ready.

What I would like to know is which vintage race organization should I   
join, SVRA or VSCCA ?
I would like to hear varying comments on either org. , pros and cons,   
number of events, rules, etc.

I do NOT have a log book for the car - but once having joined a club, I   
should be able to get a log-book issued.

thanks
gerry
