    Travel is fatal to prejudice, bigotry, and narrow-mindedness, and many of our people need it sorely on these accounts. Broad, wholesome, charitable views of men and things cannot be acquired by vegetating in one little corner of the earth all one's lifetime.

    That looks like a Porsche 917, one of histories most successful racing icons. Sports car classes often require a passenger seat of some kind so you have offset seating. That is just the nature of the beast. Rules is rules.
