As Jason mentioned in the post above, to run SS/GT, you have to meet the minimum shipping weight. The SS/X classes do not have that requirement (and can have full tube chassis if I read correctly), so yes you can run one in SS/X classes. I just think one would make a really cool GT car with a late model fuel injected engine, especially with the separate RWD/FWD HP ratings now.
