    I was just wondering how much adherence/disregard to the FIA  HISTORIC 
RACING CHAMPIONSHIPS 2005 Regulations do both racing series have?   
http://www.fia.com/sport/Regulations/histracing.html
           In my previous post the local vintage race two weeks ago was  quite 
successful and we have decided to increase the frequency of the races for  next 
year. We are presently drawing up rules and regulations and reviewing  other 
historic race formats from which to benchmark from. Hopefully we can  
seamlessly integrate the features that would provide a safe, historically  
correct racing experience that can accept foreign guests during FIA sanctioned  
races.  
           Any comment would be greatly welcome.

The conclusion I draw from this is that the Australian rules produce a car
that is improved in safety and performance both on the track and on the
street, while the American rules tend to produce a single-purpose weekend
toy. Any American vintage racers want to respond?

If you're near Mountain View, CA,
it's the primer red one with chrome wires
(not a weekend toy; safety and performance arguable)
