Actually, the answer I once received from someone very high in the
SCCA Solo program was that there weren't enough Fieros competing
at the National level to warrant that type consideration. In reality,
the
reason that there are so few in National level competition is just the
opposite - most Fiero drivers don't want to waste their time and money
only to be a backmarker. That is the role that the SCCA has relegated to
the Fiero owners/drivers through their regulations - since the early
90's, even a hot-shoe driver could not be Nationally competitive in a
Fiero the way the rules have been. (The V6 Fiero was very competitive
until then, if you recall)
I could list a host of travesties by the SCCA against our community
since the early 90's - for example, how about them classing a 90hp
2700lb car ( the 2.5L four cylinder Fiero) against the Neon for years
and years, refusing to re-class it even when petitioned? Can you,
Charlie (or anybody else for that matter) offer a reasonable explanation
for that decision???

Take it up with all the 911's that left SoloII when a factory oiling
update got the first 27 (?) years of the production run kicked out of
stock. And I'll hazard to guess that there are a lot more 911's effected
by that than Fiero's. Said 911 mod didn't even add power it took it
away.
Or take it up with the great Lotus removal, or the past FP change a few
years back.
If you want to win above all else you've got to be willing to change
cars early and often.
It's the greater good
