Ferrari Mailing List: Re: '97 456GTA

[Hans E. Hansen (FList]

Seems Hall and Smokey Yunick had something in common.  Each
would come up with "creative interpretation" of the rules, show
up with a car that met the exact letter of the rule book, only
to have the rules promptly rewritten against them.  Oh well.

Remember Smokey's 3/4 scale Chevelle?  Nothing in the rules
against it.  Until the rules required body templates.
