I can't remember seeing 914s at SOVREN but many cool old Porsches and other makes as well. steve |

I dunno...is that "ban" this year? I could have sworn seeing at least two 914s regularly at the PIR summer historics. I thought those were also run by SOVREN.

cars that were built for the "model year" which is 70' would have been produced in 69'. there are very few early z cars either. keeps out the rif-raf.

QUOTE(rdauenhauer @ May 5 2006, 09:56 PM) That stinks. What class? Did they give a serious reason, or are they really lame enough to disallow a car that fits the rules just because they don't want it? |

reread the "historic" class rules. the whole production date nonsense is the key. a few years back there was a guy all ready to go with a nice flared 6. tagged him for a fibreglass rear bumper. a "debris on the track" issue if someone drove into the back of his car. what about a plastic car with no bumpers? think corvette. there's plenty of those.
