You know, John, you might have a good point there: why have rules at all? Why have limitations?
Makes things a lot easier in tech... :-)

I'm not advocating elimination of the ruleset. What I am advocating is a ruleset that can be changed via member input and a willingness to review a 30 year old philosophy behind a ruleset. I don't know about your regions, but here in Cal Club IT is severely wounded. NASA's PT category for basically IT prepped cars has double and triple the turnout at events. Maybe their points mod classing philosophy has something to do with that?
