So, there ARE issues when it comes to making IT a Runoffs eligible category. Heck, right now it's an issue, but it hasn't reared it's head. The CRB is rightly concerned (I think) with the potential temptation that would exist for a less than up and up competitor to "create" a killer obscure car, win the championship, based on non existant or conflicting specs.
Is it a deal breaker? No, but it can't be overlooked, and it isn't easy.

Jake, this reminded me of an letter I was planning to send to the CRB regarding SS cars. I have a couple of buddies who run in SSC in the MARRS series, and while shooting the bull one afternoon last year one of them was telling me about this nice Neon he had been racing up through the prior year, but was now sitting gathering dust because it was no longer eligible for SSC and he didn't want to go through the trouble of converting it to ITA. My thought was why wouldn't they allow SS cars to continue racing at the regional level, and just make them ineligible for national races after the 10 year period.
