It would not occur to me to question Kas or Mike. And, although I was racing
a TR4 with the CalClub/SCCA in 1963-64, the rules for determining a national
championship would hardly have been a concern of mine at the time.
I do, however, have a vague recollection that some folks were running races
outside of their division for the purpose of accumulating points toward a
(perhaps mythical) national class championship.
Surely there's someone on this list (or the vintage-race list) who either
has a better recollection than mine . . . or has a collection of early
Competition Press issues that would resolve the issue.

Your absolutely right under the current SCCA championship program.
However, my question related back to pre-1964 when there was no ARRC.
Kas Kastner & Mike Cook agree that each divisional champ was
considered a national champion because there was no runoff. However, this
particular Oilzum poster made a distinction between and provided names of
"national" champions and "division" champions (as well as regional
champions) in 1963.
So I feel like I am missing something in the interpretation because
a distinction made on the Poster between national and division champions.
