After 15 pages I've read enough to form my opinion. The points have been made quite fully. I do not want to see any car dual classified. IT, as a whole, should subscribe to the KISS principle. IMHO that is what has kept us healthy, viable, and growing.
Not all cars are created equal, nor are they developed equally. Shall we have "the Stig"* drive the most developed of each one and compare times with the normal driver of the car? I have enough trouble with slow ITS cars not wanting to get passed by a mere B car. Should they all opt to go to B until they can get to S times?
As an ITB driver, if the MR2 racers want to go to ITB at that process weight and with 6" wheels that is fine with me. The ITAC can monitor the cars and make an adjustment as necessary.
As an ITB driver, if the first generation RX7 racers want to go to ITB at that process weight and with 6" wheels that is also fine with me. The ITAC can monitor those cars and make an adjustment as necessary. Those that don't want to step up to closer racing can stay in Spec/IT7 or whatever they want to call it in each region. I would suggest for those events where ITB and Spec/IT7 may run together, the Spec/IT7 have identification front and rear so those racing in B can know what that car's class is.
