Guyszzzzzzzzzzz. Ugh, Watching a NASCAR Triumph beat up on an old Ferrari
has the same appeal as watching a match up of Mike Tyson beating on an aging
Ali. If Triumphs had "had it", They'd of won the Mille Miglia. Face it,
with today's knowledge and some good Hoosiers you can make a Stage Coach
beat a Ferrari. I agree completely with Mr. Earle on excluding the 1972
Spitfire regardless of history based on the company of its
contemporaries(Pintos etc.). 1972 was in the nose dive decline of road
racing interest. To me vintage racing is about racing cars prepared with
period modifications. The SCCA is about seeing how fast you can make your
car go.
