That's right. I have noticed an increase in snobbery in 1600 circles. Take for example the Datsun Nationals in Adelaide this year, the caveat.."preference will be given to 510s for track events'. It almost turns me off going, except that I want to go to show 'em how to do it..

Owning a 1200 is about being an outcast from the rest of society, present company excluded, where we are very welcome.

I think 510 owners are becoming Roadster owners in the superiority complex stakes. The lack of parts availability has created a niche for egotists who can't succeed in other areas of their life.

That's why I limit my harrassment of 120Y, 1000 or Sunny owners. I'm of the opinion that if you're a Datsun owner, you are a bit twisted, this makes you "OK" in my books.

So let's promote "no Attitude" as a Datsun owner quality.
