The one thing I think is important when folks move over to vintage is to adjust attitude.
It's super-critical and it seems to get overlooked as "not important".
Many vintage club including mine (VRG) do not award trophies, or series points or championships.
We don't care about those things.
For racers moving over from NASA, SCCA, etc, it's best to keep in mind that having fun is key in vintage.....not winning.
I club-raced for many years and have a pile of trophies. But by the time I moved to vintage, I really didn't care about that anymore.
Obviously, It's fun to try to beat the other guys......we're all racers. For example, I started 4th on the grid out of 50 cars in the MG-only race at PVGP. It's <span style="text-decoration: underline">real</span> racing and I worked my butt off to get that start position, but I didn't push <span style="text-decoration: underline">so</span> hard as to risk my car or other guy's cars.
But I'd say it's much more important to go home in one piece than to gain another spot in the finishing order. When I raced in NASA, it seemed like that was the opposite.
Hope vintage works for you.....it's great fun!
