Maybe the biggest mistake was dividing it into 3 categories(A,B,&C).
Another mistake was not limiting it to "pony cars"
Another mistake was not making it more of a spec 302 type (3 "x4") motor with an "accepted" list of OEM casting number heads,etc.
Another mistake was probably lifting the 10.5 tire rule too.
The people with big money to spend went after that class like white on rice.......while Jon Kaase, Ron Hutter, Roush, and others just smiled.
