I'll also point out that if you think an allowance should be made for front LCAs in SP, send a letter to seb@scca.com with what you want and why. It may not happen, but it can't if you don't ask for it. The classes do grow and evolve, though not always as fast as people would like. Also note that the SEB will recently publish they are looking for members for various advisory committees (like the Street Prepared committee, which is where the SEB takes its recommendations from on what to change). You can send in a resume if you'd like to participate (there's no physical requirement to be present anywhere...everything is done by conference calls every other month and on a private forum).

Sometimes people think a certain marque is unfairly "picked on" by obvious problems in classing. In reality it *could* be that there were no folks with intimate knowledge of that marque in a position of persuasion and thus a small amount of fear of what the car *might* do caused it to be classed somewhat improperly based on reality. How do you change that? Get people *with* knowledge of those marques on the various committees.

I'm just sayin'...

Thanks. I'll shoot an email, but won't cry if it doesn't amount to anything.

Say- why isn't the Cayman S mentioned in any prepared class list?
