    OK, just to keep things organized, weigh in here on your name classing ideas. Of course that's based on the big "IF"...

    OK, some notes-

    IT-

    .....GT....stilll used in certain areas, and the old American Sedan class before it outgrew IT rulesets.
    .....T....comes after "S", but ITT in certain areas is a class for mini trucks
    .....U....reminiscent of the old IMSA GTU class...allows expansion for future an even faster IT class called ITO
    .....O...sounds cool, and the old GTU cars are really in S and A anyway.
    .....R...Not sure about the logic of this one, but I don't think it's used yet. R for "race"? What are the other classes?
    .....X....lots of guys think all wheel drive as the manufacturers denote their AWD models with an X, others think "X" sounds cool...sexy, experimental. ooookaaay....
    ......5 ....if you rename the lower classes 1-4, 5 allows for 6, etc expansion.
    ....other??

    "R" is logical becuase it is the next letter "above" "S".

    That leaves the Acura NSX in "ITQ".

    I vote "ITR."

    I vote for "R" and here is why...

    GT - Still in use regionally
    T - Used for IT Trucks regionally
    X - Used regionally
    G - Looks too much like a "C" at 100mph.
    O - Looks too much like a "C" at 100mph
    U - For the *next* class.

    Yes, I know that there should be no mistaking ITC and ITO cars on the track, but thats not the point. Workers and T/S want everything to be clear, and in many fonts an O and a C are going to just be way too close.

    Wouldn't the "R" look too much like a "B" at 100mph?

    I like a full re-numbering or lettering. Call that one ITA, ITS=ITB, ITA=ITC, etc or IT1, IT2, IT3, etc.

    And, as for R coming in above S, you all missed out!!

    GT and Touring uses numbers, I vote for numbers! But not necessarily renumbering all the classes. Start with the new class as IT1. Then after we see what shakes out, we can see if ITS will become IT2 or IT3, with the rest of the classes following along. This leaves some flexability to the scheme.
