I see both sides of this. But would like to add the following comments.

1. Going faster WILL NOT bring in more spectators. The tracks need to do this. Most of the tracks we race at do a very poor job of marketing our events. Look at Norwalk, they do a great job and they get spectators. I don't think we will EVER pack the stands, but we could have a few more with some help from the tracks. But to be clear, changing the class will not help.

2. I do see where people are coming from about the indexes being 25+ years old. All the other classes have adjusted several times since inception. I would not be opposed to making the classes faster and I think round numbers would be a great idea.

3. Ultimately I will race the classes regardless of what they do. I am there for me, not for the fans.
