on the coast and a friend that was not allowed to run. The axle that had
been slotted in the web area. The coupe also had a Cad V-12 with a front
mounted blower. The rules comittee felt it might have to much weight on the
axle. Just reporting the facts >>

unusual cars that I'd like to see. I guess the bottom line is, if it is built
safe and meets the rules you can race anything. Bob
