Agree that the Formula B vs. Formula Ford dilema is a real problem for race organizers. Talk it up among your friends. The solution is enough cars in both groups to establish a decent field. Also ag

At the SCCA Laguna event, we had so many open wheelers, they did a split start for the Vees, but only in the feature race. I went out mid-pack with the Vees. It worked ok. I can usually hold my own

I'm on the rules committee for CVAR here in Texas, and we recently revised our FB rules in order to put them in the same group with the FF cars. We require treaded tires and no wings, with a 1972 cut

That's part of the vintage racing philosophy - safety first and no contact. Every competitor is supposed to be watching out for every other competitor while on the track! The issue of "protection" SH

Here in the East we have the RCCA and EMRA running low key events including club ford and a "run what you brung" formula class. (Last Fall at Bridgehampton, we talked to a guy running an Indy Lights

CSRG doesn't accept anything that new, so we don't have that problem here, but I can certainly appreciate it... VARA seems to have a wide variety of cars running, and everyone at the events I talk to

Merely being obsolete does not make a vehicle a vintage race car. As this is my first response to this newsgroup, I should give some intro. As half of the two-car equipe' known as Team Escargot, I vi

This is apparently a regional problem. The SCCA Vintage program out here specifically boasts that they will find a place for ANY car to run that is basically non-competitive in modern classes. At the

I'm not sure I understand this sentiment. Out here in California, the big time for-profit races tend to be the MOST exclusive. It's the small-time private club events that are starving for entries an

This sounds like a problem afflicting every vintage racing group everywhere. Every club seems to be losing the really neat old cars for studier, easier to race and overall more competitive as well as
