What about SS changes?

[Dick Butler]

Len,
Any luck with a higher GT class at 7 or 7.5 lb? any consolidation in SS or GT?

[Len Imbrogno]

Dick,
No new classes in S/S for 2008. We need to consolidate some classes in S/S before anything else new can be looked at.

[Dick Butler]

So what will be consolidated this year as a starting point to decreasing numbers of classes?

[Just Observing]

Hopefully not GT and SS. The old cars would become oboslete with a stroke of the keyboard.
Why not consolidate some of the Modifed classes? They enjoy enough advantages as is. Give'em some more heads up races.

I would first move the modified cars out of super stock and into comp. They are really not super stock cars. This would cut back on the amount Classes in SS and add some more affordable classes to comp.I would also eliminate the front drive conversions. They dont really conform to the style of cars that should be in Super Stock. They are more like a comp car with a SS motor.

I think guys come around me fast now - stick SS/GS in comp and you'll have 13 sec FWD cars racing 6 sec cars - See those fast guys back into the stripe and save index in that situation. I know you're talking the cars that can double as Super Modifieds but those blanket "move all modifieds" catches a handful of lessor "modified" super stockers.

There's no such thing as an affordable class in comp...if the people running modified could afford to run comp most would be in super mod already.
