1320, you can't do what you keyboard & you are in hiding.

As for an entry level class, as been stated; my opinion in order; bracket racing, S/ST, then the slower classes of stock.

After reading all the superfluous nonsense of this thread I still believe S/ST is, can and should be the "Entry Level" class. Let's get back to the theme of this thread.

My version of S/ST;
.5 Pro Tree.
10.90 Index.
2800 lbs. minimum.
135 MPH maximum.
NO ELECTRONICS, i.e., Delay Boxes, Throttle Stops, Two Steps or Grids. If I'm forgetting something please let me know.

This will enable beginners to tune their race cars, learn to cut a light and drive the stripe by the seat of their pants and without any enhancements. No mechanical teardowns, but stringent inspection for hidden wiring, also only the basic inspections for compliance and safety.

Again, instead of changing rules for a class I run in why don’t you focus on a class you run in?
how about making stock, stock again? wouldn’t that be the easiest entry-level class ever to actually race a stock vehicle?

EXACTLY!

Keith 944…KNOWS!

Again , stock is the entry level class! Anybody can take a stock, production American made car, manufactured by any of the Big 3 and run it in stock eliminator.

I disagree, because Stock Eliminator requires an exceptionally level of technical execution and for those that are challenged by this will be at a severe disadvantage.

Oh by the way if it's that easy why don't you show us how it's done?
