Correct GeeBee, some great vehicles available rite here in NZ, and this class is similar to what we are doing with HMC, trying to keep the vehicle entry level reasonably affordable, but to me the secret of any "historic" race class is not to let "modernisation" take over were it becomes a money race to win, build a car today and it must be-able to fit the group in 10 years time and not be out classed!! this is were the Aussies got it rite with there Na, Nb, Nc historic racing, 30 years ago.
