PK.
[color="#0000FF"]Don't think so Paul, if anything the OSCA cars have a much more prestigious place in the history books as with the exception of the Fleetwood, Fahey, Dawson cars most of the above are clones, copies & born again versions of overseas cars that never raced in NZ in a previous life, and I think the only current 'series' if you want to call them something would be the CMC & HMC events. Might be something to do with the population bias in this country as well, you gotta remember some folk on this forum never got to experience the OSCA series in real original form, imagine if it had continued as such and resisted the pressure to go the spaceframe route, with the huge variety of cars & body styles now available, variety is supposed to be the spice of life and the series that have followed have never really endured have they. Parity sucks
