OK, lets try this again. Take the engine & gearbox out of a trad. What have you got? A trad. It's not defined by the engine. It's defined by the chassis, the suspension and yes, the shape.
What defines an Aero? First the bonded aluminium tub. Second the advanced suspension. But to most it would be the shape.
I look at cars like this naked..........hence the X ray specs analogy. So although the Plus8+ is without a doubt a new concept, its geneology is Aero. How may parts are interchangeable with a current trad? Not many I suspect.
If I were to contemplate allowing one of these cars into the Trad Plus 8 Concours Class, I can see trouble ahead.
Time for some head scratching I think.
