here's how it was:
The Jenkins 72 Vega was the first tube frame car.
the 74 Vega was the one to first use struts and a dry sump.



I'm not questioning the dry-sump thing. What I'm wondering is, if a car has ANY of its stock frame in it yet the rest of the car is a fabbed chassis, WHAT class does it run? I can see an argument for both sides yet a definite advantage for a tubed frame car. This IS important as the guys not wanting to run the series merely for fun could find themselves protested & possibly found illegal or find themselves at a huge disadvantage.
The PSCA series had a class requiring stock framerails---- guys used the front sub-frame ONLY then abbed up a high-end CM frame beyond that, that TECHNICALLY fit the requirement. I'd hate to see guys gettin' by with that sort of rule-bending.
