so, you think ims is an issue? try running a 50-year old historic british race car.
know your pain. My first autocross car was a 1962 TR4 that was an ex SCCA racer. Loved the car, but hated it at the same time.

My brother also raced 1963 TR4 in vintage races for about 10 years in the late 90s.

Father raced a GT6 in the 70's until one of my brother's rolled it showing off to friends in HS.
