If you want to grow the class, don't put a lid on the possible entries because of body style.

Right. But no jelly bean cars. They need to be RWD from the factory with a V-8. Might exclude some ringers like V-8 Monzas.
The spec head with a claimer rule suggested by Randy is a great way to help keep the cost down. Weight bias rule might be worth looking into also.
IHRA SS/Production classes are probably the closest thing to the old Modifieds back in the day. Lots of those cars in the Carolinas and they are worth the price of admission.
Randy, what kind of cost is involved in those spec head sprint car engines? What other engine rules are involved?
