Andy,

What Kirk really fears is the Prod like nature of this. Including the hybrid cars how many classes can a Sprite be in? How about a MGA?? I realize that there's different motor sizes involved, but why can't a H-Prod car run in G-Prod? How about a limited prep F-prod Miata, it's classed in E-prod, could he run this class instead?? I think this path encourages the formation of an old guard similar to what's found in prod around the spridget/mg guy's. In reality this is what's making prod a sick puppy. These cars were hard to find with I was getting my drivers license back in the mid-80's what's made them more plentiful today?? I'm sure this all started innocent enough, untill 30 years have gone, and you look back and say what happened to Improved Touring?? It looks like Prod used to, and no one comes out to run it any more. Why??

This is just my take on it, but I'm sure that's what Kirk the Kermudgeon was thinking.
