I love how a short throw shifter bumps you a class yet in "stock" you can run super sticky DOT tires. The shifter might save .0000003 seconds on that one shift into second yet the tires get you 2+ seconds. This is where the SCCA is completely whacked--a mod with virtually no measurable gain is illegal.
The SCCA is going to die if it doesn't wise up to the fact that their car classifications and allowable modifications are incredibly dated. Don't even get me started on IT and RX7's. Then there's the BEST class for newbies, Spec Miata, how long did it take for the SCCA to wake up to that

In retrospect, it was all downhill from here. RIP, CEG.
