I have so many classic paints floating around for this, similar to last years Pre-66 World Cup champ that never happened, so I think there are loads of cars already for this.

I could probably make that most weeks, if its too late a start for others then I'll stay out.

Could we maybe do this to B500 instead James? No big deal if not, but a few people signed up to Carl's world cup a few months back at B500, plus I tuned a 250GTO to that spec and an E Type, and cars go very well indeed!

In other words, whatever class you run it i'm in with a Ferrari 250 GTO smile

If i'm honest I was hoping for someone to say this as I made an E-type to C|425 and it was skittish enough then let alone with an extra 200hp or so!

I remember the championship as I was running in it aswell, I might allow things like the skyline and élan as they are very early 70s.

Are you going to make this GT cars only? To loose the sports cars, making it a real GT champ? ie 2+2

Im not sure but I think I might keep the ferraris and stuff, but I will decide slightly closer to when we will start this, also it is definitely B class so you guys can remove the A class bit from the table.

Wonder if Kodiak will run the Daytona Cobra...? scratchchin

ETA: Stiggy, if you're going to make it a GT-only champ you might have to allow more than one of each car, as good pre-70's GTs are a little thin on the ground!

Anyone want my 300SL for this, I'm not going to enter myself as I'm a COD man now.

First to shout gets it...you just need to add paint.
