HI Jim, et al.

I must say I agree with you on the points you raise. As far as Savannah,
the no. of incidents were appalling. I've never been at an HSR with so
many shunts (major league shunts they were). I attributed it to
"end-of-the-season go for broke" reasoning? I don't know. It's certainly
not typical for the Mitty at Road Atlanta (been going to those since the
late 80s.

As I detailed, my hopes, aspirations are to get some track experience at
various schools, hopefully my first school will be at RA with BMW club
at RA in March. After a year or so and IF I feel comfortable than maybe
drive in the Sports Challenge at HSR. I would never even think of racing
a 95 model anything in a vintage race. If I find I really enjoy this
I'll get a proper vintage car (an Elan?) and go from there.
