| Valid points just the same Ron. Just to clarify; my car is set up for wheel-to-wheel racing and complies with current UK regulations which allows for eligibility in same-level as UK Motor Sport Association (UK governing body) regulation races abroad.
What meets this criteria abroad I do not know other than I have raced abroad under those rules, neither do I know the current FIA and SCCA or other regulations or specifications relative to my car because since 1994 I have not entered an FIA (International regs) race (this may have something to do with watching a field of Le Mans cars through screwed-up eyes streaming either side of me in the rain as I sat in the middle of the road the wrong way, facing them, praying they would miss, which they all did, following a spin at Silverstone).
What I do know is that it met FIA spec in 1994 but it is very unlikely it does so now. This presumption is based upon a perceived increase in the weight of current rule books and corresponding number of rule-makers.
For those who may be concerned at buying a race car, you can always restrict power and soften suspension for road use then put it all back if need be. The expensive and time consuming bit as we all bitterly know to our cost is adding power and performance.
