Why No S/ST 10.90 @ Indy

I turned the same questioned over to my SRAC member. Granted it's a wish list. However I would not contend that it be competed as a LODRS world championship class. Simply, as mentioned before, a class that's added to the Indy schedule.This way there's no pressure to gain additional sponsor dollars. I would put a 30 - 40 cap on the field, the same quota as most S/ST Nats, and let the grade point system take care of who gets to race there. This would reward the "full time" S/ST racers with a better shot at making the field. It also motivates racers to participate in the divisional series to get the necessary grade points. Which I believe is the way the grade point system was designed to work.
I also had on my wish list to increase the number of S/ST Nats in each division to two. The fields are only 75%...why not? ...Maybe they actually like the sportsman car count being lower. Who knows.
