We did have big C/SM car counts in the late ‘70s. Biggest class at Indy & Pomona. No big car counts in A/SM or B/SM. Small blocks Chevy could not run with the Ford Cleveland. Those Fords could not run C/SM. Had to be a wedge.

Comp and Modified used to be a pipeline for used cars, parts and technology from Pro Stock.
It was some what a breeding ground for new players in Pro Stock too. Now, ...... |

I started out running my Camaro in C/SM back in the late 70's. I was just a teen ager out of high school. We took the car to the sportnationals in Bowling Green KY 2 different years. both years there was more than 30 C/SM cars there. I was never very fast in that class. I didn't understand what the fast guys were doing to the heads back then. Other than that I had all good stuff.

How about addressing the 800 pound gorilla in the room? Severely limiting any sportsman category does not improve the health of our sport. A reasonable entry quota for all categories is the answer - not picking on other groups of racers. What is a reasonable national event quota for all categories? 80 to 90? Its obscene for this outfit to dangle national event entries in front of the racers and then allow only the privileged few to enter. Its known as bait and switch and it is illegal. For all of you youngsters out there (65 and younger) you better get busy cuz this outfit is determined to push you out of national events while taking your membership money.
