Alan,
Good discussion. I still hope to see Jim acknowledge my apology. I did give the FWD racers their due respect for progressing and competing. If their classes become popular per class to attract 15 cars like GT/AA at Indy they will see the market for the parts they have yet to develop....You can bet the aftermarket pieces in those cars are at a maximum use to win that class. They also must recognize that when so many cars accumulate in BA or AA or AH it is an indicator of what Class racing means to a large number of racers. My thoughts were it should be widened to More racers to enjoy at more places to get the sense of accomplishment that comes from a Class win of this size. The winner of these classes can be as proud of class win as some might be at Dial in racing. Fewer classes/more per other classes the more this racing increases. It will be interesting to see the numbers in other classes for INDY.
