This is a great point that gets overlooked a lot on here. Although STK/SS is, for the most part, a shoe-polish race once eliminations begin, these cars are not easy to drive or predict. Tuning a q-jet, footbraking with no two-step, and hand shifting a three speed is not the most efficient way to bracket race at all. But those are the rules for the class (at least my combo, anyway) and make it challenging in its own unique way.
