"The latest Fastrack clarified that the ESP guys all asked to stay
within that letter designation"

There was a similar debate going on awhile back on the wheel to wheel
list regarding road racing classes.  It was proposed that E-H Production
be renamed to P1-P4 (or something like that) to make the classes easier
to understand, especially to new people.  Background as I understand it:
A-D Prod were hurting on participation numbers and were combined into
the GT 1-5 classes so they don't exist anymore, at least on a National
level.  Don't know what year it happened (Rocky?).  There was a lot of
disagreement to the new naming proposal, mostly out of a sense of
history in the record books.  Was this the same thing that happend with
ESP or did they just not want to buy new graphics?  Seems it would have
made a lot of sense to have FS cars move on to FSP and not ESP.
