I personally take my hat off in admiration to Peter for his bravery in happily running his car with HSS- look at the way he and the black XB Coupe were side by side
Ivan in his Escort was highly praised by the starters for controlling the rolling start
Thanks for the reply John. I guess the best way forward for HSS, is to have a dedicated class for Shellsport / Shellsport style cars to run in, if they have the numbers and wish to have a stand alone class for cars to run in, of similar capacity. Yes, Ivan drove very well considering the physical size of the competitors surrounding him.
