without changing the direction of the thread cars were bent in period. The winning Jaguar at the 1963 ETCC race we looked at on the other thread was disqualified for having a hooky engine and the other Jaguars apparently left PDQ after the race.
There will always be a team that are so desperate to win they will cheat - to create a perfect series of straight cars is the motoring equivalent of Marxism. Dont get me wrong - I would love to race on a level playing field but its Utopia.
What the organizors can and should do is throw out cars that are found out - short term its a brave move as it could decimate grids (how many 6 Hour cars would pass?!) but when word gets out that its a being run properly it will become a "must do" series. That is why Carol's GD was a great success and why the Pre 63 GT was as well. Curiously both grids were selected from the entries - maybe that is the way forward
