Like the song says: "same as it ever was".
When you're scared of the competition, you torque the rules to your
advantage. ;-)
In SCCA club racing, you can use alternate transmissions and alternate
gear sets, but you cannot run overdrive on a non-standard gearbox. God
knows why... a T5 (or whatever) with a normal O/D 5th gear offers exactly
NO advantage other than reliability.
Oddly, in SCCA Solo - when the various "Street" classes were created
(about 10 or 12 years ago), they specifically exclude Triumphs. Gee, I
wonder why?
