In 2002 when I joined VSCDA, the rules were "All Sprites and Midgets regardless
of engine selection are placed in Group 2". I asked each and every director in
the organization if a 1275 in a Bugeye (like most have) was legal, answer was
yes, I would just be put ina class with the other 1275 Bugeyes and Sprites. I
have a 1275 in my Bugeye, I will continue to do so next year be it with VSCDA
or not. I claim the engine size correctly each race and am grouped
appropriately. There are many of us. Next year there is a possibility the
combination will be disallowed. Somehow, 1958 minis can still have 1275s, and
948s can have oversized 998 pistons and 1098 engine components, but whatever.
There is one 948 car that has been reliably on the track in the 4 years I've
been racing (Gary Kropf), and I am at 1/5 his budget. So, basically, I have
1275, and I can't afford to go slower.
