Bob mentioned groups 2 and 7, but not group 4 where most of the TR3's
should run. Group 4 is called the Corinthian Classics and is CVARs
attempt to preserve 1950's era racing. Group 4 is reserved for pre 1961
cars and has more restrictive rules, e.g. 50 series 15 inch tires are
not allowed. This again should not be a problem, because overprepped
TR3s would most likely be moved to Group 7 where you might be happier
anyway. If we get the TR8's in, they would most likely be put in Group
1 with the Mustangs, Camaros, Tigers, etc.
