I agree that would bring more crowds to see the competition...This is a good step we are taking to bring the sport back to life!!!

Obviously you don't think outside the box. No hard feelings, but when everyone started watching racing when we all had no race cars we went to see everyone else race and when we started we started slowly. You never walk before you get past crawling... It would bring more crowds and friends to come support their friends.

From what they said at the track when they thought it up was no lexan or cut doors. Street car appearance needed to be maintained

This sounds like a blast, the 10.0 cut should fit my P/S car perfict! Doubt I'll
make it this week but I'll be out for some of them later in the year..

not really understanding the 10.00 index but it should be pretty cool to go and watch.

10.0 index is due to keeping it more budget friendly. And it makes it easier for them because they dont have to check for licenses, chassis certs, etc. All which usually adds to the fund of building a car. Good idea if you ask me.

a 10.00 index in fwd form will constitute the need for licenses and chassis cert's.

technically yes but no. Thats why they made the class the way it is. Even then a bunch of people will still have trouble meeting the very few rules there are.
