    My big issue is the rules don't fit what people either are doing, have done or want do to. I think there is a disconnect between competitors and MSNZ who set the rules. This is something I feel strongly about having purchased as car that was 3/4 complete as a targa car as such had mods for their rules. Me I want to run the car in classics which has meant removing a lot of stuff, selling it on and starting again to get the car to a point where it fits the current regs - this has taken time and $$. So it was a hotrod as some might say with a modern engine/EFI (if you can call an engine that is 89 vintage modern today - under MSNZ own regs that is 20 years old so is classic - I could not run in any classic grid with this setup)

    So brakes were sold, engine/gearbox sold and period engine/gearbox and brake sourced - now I have to rewire the car to fix the cutting that was done for the EFI (back to carbs and dizzy)
