Absolutely not. it's soooo laid back at VSCC meetings, a healthy antidote to modern formulae. The scratch races and handicaps are very good fun to watch, but I would suggest that VSCC races need to be run on the 'right' sort of circuit. Long 'power' circuits often do the cars no justice, the casual spectator is used to seeing far higher speeds and spectacle at these tracks than can be provided by most of the cars taking part. Note the word 'casual', for many subscribers to this forum, and many 'hardcore' fans, I would imagine the pleasure comes from simply observing the cars. Quite often, I watch them pass and try very hard to blank out any 'modern' paraphenalia in order to see them in their original settings....
