Well that's what 99% of all competitiors I have ever asked says as well, so it seems that all that's needed are new stickers and a sanction from anybody willing to extend insurance coverage.
In other words: bugger SCCA, hello IRDC, USAC, or maybe CCCP.

Becuase we must always remain hopefull, worse has happened before, this time may be the last straw in relationship to SCCA, but the very nature of driving rally cars down roads is crazy anyway, so doing something likle beginning building a rally car now is in a way in accord with the situation.
Situation crazy, it follows to do something crazy.
besides there's no pressure to get it done hastily.
Vincenzo Lombardi once said the ol' cliché When the going get tough...
But Dr. Hunter S. Thompson said the more appropo:
"When the going turns wierd, the wierd turn Pro"
