Too many rules there, i agree !! But we got to sort this date thing out Pete.
One thing i wouldnt like to see now is too many people dusting off more 90's buggies than their 80's buggies - the whole point of this was to get peoples old, old buggies out and running - if everyone now starts thinking of running CAT2000's, XX's, B2's, XX4's etc etc it kind of defeats the point a little ?
Having the odd later car is no problem in my book, but if suddenly you've got Belsten and Griff ( apologies guys - but you have both said so ) asking about running later cars, everyone will do so if they can...
Im a competitive person as you all know ( ! ), so if im running round in a fragile Egress being lapped 3,4,5 times per heat by a few more modern buggies the shine is kind of taken off the experience for me, especially when i know people have equally as valuable, fragile cars they couldve run instead but didnt - I really want to mostly run against early CATS & Cougars, Optima Mids, JRX2's, Astutes, TRX1's Tubbed RC10's etc etc etc, cars it would have ran against when it was new... If that was the case id forget running the Egress & Top Force and just run the Predator or a sorted Lazer ZXR. Only way i could be competitive !
But thats not the spirit of it is it ?
Dave Jackson had the right idea last couple of years - Fire Dragon Rules !!
I really didnt want to get into this debate too much, but i am now so there :P
