Look, if this thing is going to have any chance at all, you are correct in that you need to have people willing to play. The BEST way to get people to play is to have a rule structure that is strict enough to limit the high dollar engine mods while being loose enough to allow in the maximum number of "pre-existing" cars. The cubic in/ weight thing restricts your potential entries too much. Whether you like it or not, you're going to have to come up with something that will attract not just obsolete Modified and SS cars but (like it or not!) Bracket cars and .90 cars too. Minimum weight, put a serialized, restrictor plate supplied by the series promoter or check all plates with a go-nogo gauge and replace your collector with a 21/2" one or put a cone on your collector and pre-check with a go-nogo gauge. In a matter of a half an hour a great number of cars can compete.
I think that I would leave the full tree vs. pro tree open and maybe even consider an instant green tree.
