An interesting comment, Ian. Does the BOC finally turning their backs on cars built two years ago in Argentina, claimed to be to Molshiem drawings and spec, count as snobbery? Is the almost universal disaproval on this forum of what cars like the water ski "special" look like and what it costs in damage to donors also snobbery? Does the Gloucestershire culture of pick ups and fifties salons with the extensive areas of rust carefully covered with matt varnish mean reverse snobbery?
I might be alone in this, but over the years, nay decades, I've found that sort of judgement is not to be found in the paddock, or at signing on. Competition is competition.
