But this philosophy accepts that you are obsoleting some older cars. Not just obsoleting them, but basically ignoring them. Its the "Look, you guys can run these Jensen Healeys if you want to, but you're on your own. We're moving on."

Some would agree that progress marches on and this isnt such a bad thing. Others would argue that the club needs to continue to make every effort to keep as many cars as possible reasonably within a competitive range. This approach means that newer cars are almost ALWAYS going to be ballasted to high heaven.
For the "current" ITS, the IS300 is too fast.

Won't hurt the Jensen Healey at all IMHO. If you're lowering curb weights then it can do down too - at 2240lbs it weighs more than a street trim JH. So, stick it down around 2000lbs and it'll be just fine. And while we're at it, fix another car I own half of that is screwed up in weight - a 260z. It does not deserve a 200lb weight penalty over the 240z when it has to wear those heinous non-power producing carbs for a measley 150ccs of displacement with lower compression.

A runs with S on the track and A has some light cars too, so I wouldn't be so concerned about the heavier and lighter cars issue.
