Finally found a rule book for 2012 and looked up s/st and roadsters. I t stated that street roadsters were allowed. Is stated, cars with no tops were not allowed. I am a little bit confused. I thought street roadsters would be like a 32 Ford, of something like that. I don't run in s/st, but I use to a long time ago, till they raised the minimum weight and went to a half second tree. I always felt, that s/st would be for the vegas, mustangs, mavericks, novas, and full body camaros, and dusters and stuff like that. I enjoy they way s/st is, or was with the old muscle cars. I saw a street roadster is s/st about 5 years ago, and it had, I believe, a 4 cylinder in it. And could weigh in at 2100 lbs . If this is the way the rules are going to be interepted, then I still think they should open it up and allow dragsters in S/g with throttle stops and have the index at 9.9, And maybe we would see a 200 mph dragster running s/g. I don't see much difference. I really don't what to see people cutting the roofs of of there mustangs and camaros and running s/st. I don't think this is what I envisioned, when I had to move up a class when they raised the minimum weight. Every one is trying to get a advantage by doing the extreme. I say get rid of the minium weight and allow dragster in s/g. That way a guy could have two dragsters and run one is s/c and the other in s/g and a roadster in s/st.
