Don,

Are they going to get rid of Comp? Do you know something that the rest of us don't? A few SS cars with scoops wouldn't save it if that was true. There are too many classes in Comp right now as it stands. The cost would increase dramatically for the SS cars as it is hard to continue to run fast consistently in Comp. Ask Mr. Watters he knows the deal. A good engine is 50k+ and it will have to be freshened atleast once a year if not more and that will set you back a big chunk of change. If hood scoop cars were forced to go to Comp, not many would go. They would either change to a non scoop class and remain in SS or just sell for pennies on the dollar and get out. Is that what class racing needs? Less participants? I think you do a good job at stirring the pot though.
