Bill,

There was an attempt to run some races by some group using real cars as mentioned above but it never made it. I would almost bet that NASCAR with their money and power put a stop to it. I remember the talking mouths in the booth running on and on about how dangerous it would be to race the Mustangs and such today. NASCAR is a monopoly with their heads up their Ass**. They will use any means to stop any other racing group from really amounting to anything. And they know if some group could get started, such as the old Trans Am series a lot of people would watch that instead of their boring, NASCAR designed tank going around in circles.

I watched the Rolex series race yesterday and in the GT group a Corvette was doing pretty well for a while.

Ron
