Anything that would promote more poepl building stick cars is a bonus, in my opinion! Stick cars are cool.

I would imagine that sticks and autos could be combined, with weight breaks as necessary... if done intelligently. (wait, nevermind!)

Pure Stock and Crate Motors have them combined. There are a handful of stick cars in Pure Stock, but I've only ever seen one Crate Motor car with a stick... '55 Chevy if I recall. That was the coolest thing ever!
