Brad,

No - because in Production you are in a different category. You need to keep
the classes and categories in their separate niches.
Special Construction Category - all streamliners and lakesters
Vintage Category - all roadsters, pre '49 coupes and sedans and oval track
Modified Category - comp/gas/altered coupes and modified sports & pickups
Production Category - production, production supercharged, GT & production
pickups
Diesel Truck Category - all diesel trucks

A class cannot jump between categories, a vehicle may make changes which
would move it between categories i.e., a GT car adding a bellypan would move
that car to Modified Sports/Modified category.

Hope this helps - Dan
