Apparently, not many people can go back and forth... I ran Old Blue at
the Lime Rock Historics a couple years back, an event requiring bias ply
tires. Now, there were a handful VSCCA faithful that always run on tall
skinny tires, and the fast ones were really fun to watch. But I think
the majority of people in my group were interlopers, like me, who ran
every other event of the season on radials. The group was a crash fest,
most sessions ended short with incidents. During the feature we had an
interesting incident in the left-hander. A Giulietta and an MG tangle,
the Alfa's front quarter into the rear quarter of an MGA with fiberglass
fenders. The fiberglass fender collapsed and the tires touch, vaulting
the front end of the Alfa. The Alfa planted his front wheel in the
cockpit of the MGA, and the two cars are hooked and spin off the track.
Luckily, the Alfa landed in the unoccupied side of the MGA.
OK, I'm tired of talking about this stuff, when does the season start???
