I guessed as much but wasn't sure as some vintage race bodies are stricter than others. It was a really exciting drive and I have a bunch of 356-owning friends I'll have to share it with.
 
I would always choose a Sprite over a Porsche everyday and thrice on Sundays.

I have yet to race at RA--awesome track.
Great driving on both their parts.
