Totally different topic,but actually there are so many real fast S/C cars they should drop the class and most could run T/D.Same for some S/G door cars going to T/S.I'll bet this will get a few happy comments.

Ed, you should know better. ...There are only a very few SG DOOR cars that can run fast enough to qualify in T/S,There are practically no door cars in S/C........ Even fewer that meet the rules requirements....... Roadsters can't run T/S. .......I will only say to the other comment, that I compete in both Stock and S/G and have many friends in the Shoepolish classes who dont share your opinion. ...........Shoepolish and overweight cars in class are just another form of throttlestop. ........................Take a look at the thread on Busch on the Super forum,we are the ones directly effected by entries like this one. ..............Tom

I figured that would catch your eye Tom.I only added the S/G cars to spice it up.I do believe that alot of the S/C cars could be shuffled over to T/D with a 64 car field for divisional events.You're 100% right about these ringers being let in on a whim.

I'm aware of that Tom,still my opinion.I've never driven on the straight and narrow.No sense changing this late in life.
