Great idea, but VSCDA group 1 has an "attitude" about excluding others who
want to run in "original" configuration. I am running a stock XK-120 with
drum brakes all around and L section Dunlops. My lap times would put me
right in the middle of group 1, but.... I cannot run group 1 because they do
not want "mid-fifties" sports cars or the pre-war guys won't run. So I run
group2 and watch my mirrors!
