When those rules are asinine you can bet on it.

No, what's wrong with the SCCA is their class structure that caters to specific people and the balance of the membership with their head too far up their butt to notice.

No shite, that's my point! G-Stock should mean be *STOCK*

Just to be competitve in a STOCK class you have to spend a significant amount of money buying NON-stock pieces. I think Bill Clinton is an SCCA member..."depends on what the definition of 'is' is."

Thus my whole problem with the rules structure, they allow tires that are good for ~2 sec per 60 second lap but do not allow a short-throw shifter that is good for .00000000002 seconds per lap. So I should go run in the street tire class? Where I can spend my self into the poor house buying MORE parts. Is it so friggin hard to have a stock class and it really mean STOCK? Or at the very least some classifications that actually seek to equalize competition?
