Folks, anyone think using a ford, a chrysler and a chevy can be fair? It would appeal to a couple more people but..... Too open rules means too many complaints, too much controversy. Look at the New SS and Stk cars. Apples racing oranges and onions.
The more I look at the issues, the more I believe a One motor, One carb, One trans ,in any SS or Stk chassis would be easiest. Of course chassis could be an issue also with the "jelly bean" cars available out there but the COST of the car would exceed the motor and should help limit their use for the people you want to attract. Chevy II , camaro, Duster, Mustang, all same wt/Cubic inch . Simple to buy for and tuning and driving becomes Very important.
Thoughts?
( a365 inch of any motor could work... but then Heads, Block, Pistons becomes issue)
