Factory X

I dont think this new class is running in Comp next year. They originally said it was an exhibition class for next season. To run comp they would need an index. I guess they will see how many cars get built and what kind of participation they get will determine what really happens with the class. I personally think the small tire is a mistake. Fans dont want to watch a bunch of aborted runs. Supposedly fans dont like pro stock so I dont see them knocking the door down to watch this class. They will need traction control on them. I suspect the guys that are running FS Showdown will be involved to some point and maybe some pro stock teams will build cars. It wont be cheap so us commoners wont be involved. I see it as a pro class. They will need a good size team to pull the trans and clutch every pass like PS.
