 to allow a 183 CID and 260 CID class as well as the current 325 and 375 
 limits in the XO and VF classes. This allows flat motors that are not so 
 stressed and many other O motors to be used. 325 was a lot of inches in 49.

Rich,
    Good point. I believe you're right. I also think that the additional "C", 
"D", "E", & "F" breaks within the current XO, XXO, XF, & XXF engine classes 
would encourage a lot of new cars and competitors at the SCTA / BNI 
events..........Ardun Doug
