Bob,
Now you've lost me. What all did CVAR "dislike" about the car? Just the
gearbox? Or were there things changed over the winter (after Eagles
Canyon)?
And I guess the real question was... during the discussions with CVAR was it
a set list of changes required, or did it turn into a "honey - do" list with
things added as Bobby went along?
And was the authenticity committee involved? Run group leader? CVAR
leadership?
CVAR makes a bit point on the club website to "discuss a 'new' car with the
various run group leaders" to determine elegibility. My concern is that
these guys aren't giving a consistent story.
When I ran in 1995 authenticity was a "nice idea" but not really enforced.
They did suggest that I replace my 13" rims with 10", but it wasn't a
requirement. Melting a piston going into Turn 1 meant I didn't have to
worry about the rims after that :O
Watching the dicing on track is interesting, but I think they made a
philosophical mistake by calling it 'racing'. As an exhibition, things
like the gearbox wouldn't really matter.
My .02
Cheers,
Jim
Dallas

I think an important point is being missed here, especially by CVAR.
