I run in So cal from time to time

next event is actually Portland, so not so cal

SVRA is having plenty of events in California (Coronado is coming up)
CSRG too (ran with them at Sonoma last October)
HMSA is doing some events still

you are really best to pick a club and build your car to be competitive with a set of rules... vintage is fair about transferring from one club to another, but all of the rules vary somewhat still.


just realize, you may be the same person I spoke with you on pelican... said somewhat the same thing
great shot in your avatar!

Hi Thanks for the info great to know someone else is running a teen in historics. In th eold days these cars were to knew and I wasn't sure if they are generally unwelcome or what the deal is now.

Does your car have cachet? I.e. historical race history?

One person told me it might be difficult to get into some of the clubs if the car has no history. Perhaps they don't really care about that any longer.

Thanks for the compliment that was a pix of me from about 30 years ago when Skip Barber was using formula Fords in their school. That was a big fun weekend.

I was looking at the rule books. I noticed there's a vintage SCCA rulebook and it looked like most of them would be fine if you are compliant with that rule book. That might make the car more universally accepted by various clubs. Those rules look more stringent but safer so not a bad thing. If I follow that program, I will want to stay with something no later than '72.

I have a call into HMSA since they seem to run more in the area I live.
