I'm aware of at least one "econo" circle track series in my area, believe me when you limit one thing many dollars get spent on something else to enhance performance. Bottom line any "limited" class series will quickly spiral out of control merely because there WILL be someone that is willing to spend what ever it takes to be the fastest. It's been proven over and over. Oh and since the stick cars are limited...I'll assume there will be a "spec" torque converter and everyone runs a bone stock power glide right?
Every class in SS is a spec class. Just different specs. You're not allowed a dry sump in SS, but other classes you are. It ain't rocket science. They could curb the spending but choose not to. A true Comp type titanium clutch assembly is around $7,000 more or less. Depending on all the bells, and whistles. No need for it if you limit it to one single disc clutch, and a minimum diameter. No need for the titanium bell housing. Pan evac would be legal. Vac pumps, not. I'm saying the high end pump setups are rather expensive. Don't worry. None of this will ever happen, but I go back to my original point. Why would anyone care, especially when it involves no one else's class? Mind boggling!
