<VV> Re: re:racing/BOD

[Secular]

  I totally agree with you Tom ! In fact, I have tremendous respect for
  folks like Bill Fisher from the racers of the yore and Seth Emerson (there's 
  a professor many missed) from today's clique. 

  Hank was right - a five letter word -- h u m o r --  would have saved me 
  the ocean of flames I've received in private emails (not to mention the 
  kind and less intense ones). 

  In short Tom, I love racing my Corvairs (the mid-engine and the 140 HP 1960 are 
  keepers). IMHO nothing comes close to the sensation of driving a corvair 
  in an autocross or just pushing it [to the limit] through a curve... 

  Any hoooo, I'm beginning to think that with all this support, maybe I should 
  really run for the Eastern Division thing, but so far not a peep from Sara :))

  Best wishes,


  Tony Irani

  Tony,Corvairs have been raced competitively from the beginning..Racing is a proving ground for things like the 140 heads and suspension improvements,and is part of the cars' heritage...continued racing today underscores the fact that the Corvair was-and still is-a good car when compared to all others,not a dangerous POS some believe, and we need to stand firm here...just my 2c...Tom Z,CORSA/ACORNS
