I'm all about class racing in its truest form but I still can understand the theory of not having heads up runs in the TOC the way the format is set. If you were someone like Cooter Hidalgo and dominated the whole year and someone showed up with a borrowed car at the TOC and was all the sudden 2 tenths faster how would that be fair to him. Just my opinion.

Easy fix for someone like him who is a good S/SS racer. Don't tech in till that dude does. Then don't get in his class. It's the exact same thing anyone would do at a regular race. Dodge the fast guy. That's part of S/SS. Either get out of his class, or play the ladder to avoid.
