Per this year's Nationals, you only have a 9 second spread from SS to
HS.
Make
that 4.5 for a single event. That's an average half-second
differential per
class. There's no reasonable way to accommodate cars that are
significantly
slower than HS without increasing the number of classes (by a LOT,
percentagewise), or making more cars uncompetitive throughout the
class
structure by increasing the differential spread. That's just the way
it is.

Then why do you sometimes have a 4.5 second difference in car potential
in a given class? If every car in the class was capable of running
within a half a second of the top car we would not be having this
thread!
