Well...whaddya know. It's about damn time.

Now the trick is to have a car that meets some class requirement.....like, no V8's in TX ITE.....

Yeah, that is still a problem, but one specific to Texas, at least from what I have been able to figure out so far. There is a local SCCA board meeting next month I was going to try to attend to discuss the matter some more.

To me personally, there are 2 events that might be of interest to this group. First is an event at TMS. This event has always been fun running the roval course and getting to pit in the NASCAR garages. Second is their fall enduro. This year it will be an 8 hour race at TWS.

Good news that the license part of it is no longer at issue at least.
