Bruce,
Neat idea for a race car class, but how do you suppose we could get our race
cars to the Golf Course for the car show? We could just jump the curb at
turn 13 and drive up the hill to the show!! ;>) I think Dave Spiwak in his
TR3 tried that in turn 15 a couple years ago and ended up with a bent rim
and a flat tire!
