There will always be alternative motorsports organizations due to differing cultures. There are things that frustrate people about SCCA; there are things that frustrate others about NASA.
The Volvo request has been looked at several times and is being worked on. It has not been denied.
I certainly agree that, at a minimum, the "Process 2.0" for determining a car's race weight should be published.

My recent request for the Volvo 240 is not a weight reduction request, but a line item review as some information listed is flat out wrong (i.e. exhaust valve size is 35mm, not 37mm!). If the weight changed, good. If not, at least I can build a legal car using OEM parts. I'm not sure if my request was denied. If it is, I will be writing a letter.
Same crap happens in SCCA Pro-Racing too. It's unfortunately the SCCA way.
Has the ITAC written down their philosophies and practices? If not, now is a good time since they are under scrutiny.
