Frosty- These cars were run in Australia, Jim Palmer brought this here.
The cabin size was protested about , being too small for a saloon car,no room for normal passengers in the back. so it was a sports car.
Car stopped racing and sold.
So The controversy compounded when the rules about saloon car cabin sizes changed again.and suddenly these were sedans.
Jim Short tells about how he raced his as a Sports Sedan.
Try taking 4 adults that have been in a Mini, Escort, Mustang and then put them in a 911.
Also around that time, Scott Wiseman entered his E-Type one week as a saloon, next time as a sports car.
Controversial is a suitable word here, go figure.
