> Some of us folks would like to run what we brung. Watching the vintage cars is fun, more fun if they have lapping sessions for us street folks. Maybe Sebring would be better than Daytona. Think about autocrossing too. Less risk, lots of fun and I would volunteer to be a ride along instructor for the novices. Solo II could coexist with a vintage race. Just some thoughts.
