Needless to say, any new structure as above will not be of any advantage to the Classic & Historic fraternity, arguably one of the strongest sections of the sport with the least support. TV yesterday - great Muscle car grid. Can't say the same about either Utes or NZ V8s. If they can't even manage 15 cars on such a high profile (international) event, they need to look elsewhere for support classes.

Heck, they (initially) had over 40 (interesting) entries for the Roycroft pre 1945 sports car grid. Whilst the average one eyed Holden/Ford supporter may think that they are rather pathetic, there are plenty of others who would have had their eyes opened.
