Howdy,
        I don't see that it is a slower class, try running a little engine to 
max 
effort, it may be slow to you big guys running 2-300, but some of the 
H,I,J,K cars are REALLY going FAST! It's all relative....unless you're 
wearing purple....

SCTA or BNI will never say go away to the little guy or slower vehicles. We
started there and will always continue to support them. There are many
racers happy as a pig in mud running the slower classes.It is there goal to
do as much as they can with small motored vehicles. For some it's a starting
place,for others their attitude is I am doing it, what are you doing,setting
at home wishing.
We and USFRA know where they are coming from and we know we need them, they
are the future.
