One way of looking at this is that they pay an entry fee. This helps to
fill fields and make the promoters some money. We continue to get to
race. I guess I can live with them showing up as long as they have to
pay and it helps the event make money.
Some purists would say that my car doesn't belong in a vintage race
because it was a street car and has no racing history or isn't old
enough. I would hope that I can continue to race and not be excluded
from the fun because someone felt my car didn't fit the definition of
"vintage racing".
Besides, when the stock cars run, I usually bench race or work on the
car or get ready for the next session.
