Two, Sonny? Wow. Even in Cincinnati, where they'd been built and where I grew up in the '60s and '70s, we rarely saw them. > not much skill involved in this type of racing You'd be surprised, Nathan. These cars are running on the ragged edge. The ECTA has a stiff licensing procedure. Drivers have to demonstrate their skill at progressively higher speeds -- the skill needed to recover when something goes wrong, which it eventually will. --John ****************************** John Edwin Mason, Photography: http://www.JohnEdwinMason.com Charlottesville and Cape Town
