And while I'm on my soapbox about a Street Legal class --
-- since the List quite rightly emphasizes that driver skill, seat time,
etc., needs to be emphasized over equipment, and so-and-so could win in a
shoebox, etc., how about something along the lines of the old IROC race?
Remember, a bunch of drivers including Mark Donahue, RIP, in identically
prepared Camaros?
All we'd need is a sponsor, such as Daimler/Chrysler, putting up a set of
identically prepared Neons, for example. Then let the best man or woman win
(did I mention more than once or twice before, I think that men and women
should compete for the same prizes, in addition to their own?).
THAT would be fun to watch, and I'd bet fun for the really competitive
drivers.
Now, of course, someone will chime in with "we tried that once before", etc.
Hey, I'm still new, I don't have all the history yet!
