Essentially, the chain drive cars will be limited to 1000cc with no porting of the cylinder head. Pistons, rods etc will be allowed to be replaced with aftermarket products.
Super. Another group that I had a great time running with at Sycamore and was looking forward to possibly joining again on a few odd off nights. Now, another group where the Yellow Zonker will no longer be welcome, at least until the old oiler gives up the ghost.
Nothing against the IMRA though; a good bunch of folks who are probably only doing what they think is best.
