Vintage rules for next year will be based on pretty much standard Vintage rules....go the the CVAR web site
www.corinthianvintagerace.com . Look up the rules for B/P and A/S (group 1) class. If you run any of the bias treaded tires listed there you will be ok. If you want run low profile hoosier radial slicks with DOT grooves, you will have a problem. Cars did not use that kind of tire in the era, plus radials are much more sensitive and give less notice before letting go. Hoosier TD's are pretty cheap realtively speaking. We have a guy in OKC that gets us a good deal. Usually he runs in the vintage races but not this year.
The main thing we are trying to do with the Vintage Exhibition Event is put on a good show, by keeping the cars well grouped, with a lot of safe passing. To do that we need well prepared clean accurate looking cars and drivers that understand and are willing to accept the "Vintage Rules", which basically say, no blocking, no dive bombing in the corners, respect for the cars, not the individual.

We are trying to grow the Vintage Exhibition Event and are having the typical organizational problems (knowing what the rules are before hand), so please bear with us...
We will be tightening up on saftey in the future...ie .. driving suits, arm restraints, window net...exhaust exiting behind driver.
Visit the CVAR site...check out the rules for B/P (shelby & 289 cobra) A/S - (non-shelby mustang notch back), A/P (427 cobra). Also visit the SCCA publications for the 67 and 72 PCS (production car standards) and the GCR (general competition rules for 67 and 72).
Or if you have any specific questions e-mail me,
See you next year....practice a lot. We run 1:27's at the CVAR races with legal vintage cars.
