Hey all,
I have been reading this with great interest...and I have been trying not to toss "my 2 cents" in. I dont know how many of you have been in both worlds, ( SM & ITC ) . With my many, ,many , many thanks to my friend Rick, for letting me borrow his car !
I have, in on race weekend, drove my ITC car and a SM , in back to back classes. They are completely different animals as one might expect.
But the thing I have learned, and quickly, is that you want/need to be at the pointy end of the field if you dont want to do/see so highly questionable things happen. BUT with an ITC car running with SM , it puts you in the middle of the pack..Which their of have been incedents , like the one Tim described, in fact, I believe I was also hit that same race by an SM. And I need not to mention I am down one car due to some over zelous driving by an SM driver .... Again sorry Ed for that dreadfull day...
I never understood why they changed the classes up, ITA & ITC was great ! I also would of liked to see ITC run with ITB.
Would I go back into ITC ? No way , not running with SM.
Are all drivers in SM bad ?..
.....Absolutly NOT!! There are some great drivers in that class....!!
My take on it is this , If they refuse to move ITC out of SM... ITC in the N.E will die out....
plain and simple....
