Also, any idiot can stand by the guard rail, and tell real easy if someone is clutching, or not. It ain't that hard. Then, protest them. By the way, the new clutchless stuff is just an overpriced 5 speed automatic. A trained monkey could drive one. By the way, we have 3 of them.

AMEN
I must be one of the last few percenters who DOES actually clutch every gear change.

And to the guy who suggested any one of several comp racers would make a mockery of the class in no time............yeah sure , whatever pal..........get over yourselves.

Randy what is your thinking with the 1981 and earlier models? I have a 1983 Camaro that is super stock legal and I am sure there are a lot of other super stock legal cars that are either sitting or being bracket raced that the owners would have an interest in a class such as this. I may seem quite naïve but I see nothing wrong with modeling this class after the original C/SM class. As a matter of fact I used to own a rather well known former east coast C/SM car originally owned by Ed Racis which I ran in SS/CS. Before I sold it a friend of mine tried to talk me into restoring it as it was raced back in the C/SM days. When I purchased the car I was given a car magazine that had the car on the cover as well as an in-depth article which described how popular the C/SM class had become. There had to be a reason why the original C/SM class was so popular and I'm sure I'm not the only one who would be seriously interested in seeing something similar done now. I would however like to use the previously mentioned car I already own, a 1983 Camaro.
