I'd like to attend a Vintage (VSCDA) event in a couple of weeks. Does anyone know what group we run with (SRF3)? A search didn't turn up anything.
And from what I've been told the car and I are both old enough for vintage.
Thanks!
That old already??

I'm not so certain that SRF2 and 3 are vintage eligible. You may want to check on that. I believe that GEN1, Sports Renault, is eligible.

I've seen a bunch of GEN II SRFs at the SVRA races we partner with in Trans-Am, so, I'm pretty sure you can run a Renault or at least a a GEN II (1.9 L single overhead cam) SRF in some type of vintage.

SVRA does allow the GEN2 but so far has explicitly ruled out the GEN3. The SVRA also requires a spec Hoosier tire, but it is different than the SCCA spec. The SVRA tire has tread and is narrower and stickier than the current SCCA spec tire. When I ran with SVRA in 2014, the SRF was classed in group 3M.

Interesting that SVRA is allowing GEN2. I wonder why they'd allow a different, albeit stickier, tire? If they'd just let in the current tire, they might pop their Spec Racer car counts.

Just in case someone else is interested in running "Peter" They approved me for Group 5 Class S2. Would really be nice to have a few more of us there to run with.
Mostly looking at some track time at BHF before our event. I just finished running a combined weekend with the VSCDA in MN a couple of weeks ago and they are a great bunch of people with some interesting cars. |

Excellent! I will keep the VSCDA in mind.

So does this mean Gen 3 was allowed into the race group Class S2 in VSCDA? |
I may be mistaken but the 1.6 liter is listed on their website .group 5 I believe |

You are correct. I see it on the May 2017 revised class list. They have now created a specific group for the SCCA spec racer which includes all three versions. It was a lot of fun running the 1.9 with group 3 and 4. I'm not sure I would enjoy running with group 5. |
