Full cages, full face helmets and SFI 5 suits would be prudent in slow stockers because of this, but it isn't beneficial to the health of our sport. No easy solutions or suggestions that I can see, at least not without more controversy.

As with a lot of changes, there are going to be a few unintended effects of the comp license requirement for "slow" FSS cars.
The no license SS/JA and GT/HA and slower allows a lot of older drivers to compete who may not be able to get a pass on the Comp Physical, also allows the younger drivers to get their feet wet in the 10 second and up SS classes.
This will not be the case with the FSS and FGT cars.......I guess I should send a email, but rules as currently revised may have a chilling effect on participation at least in SS.
