I'm very disappointed in this group and the complete lack of discussion leading up to this evening's SCCA presentation and comments afterward. Summary here:

I understand that some of you live and breathe the Runoffs but I'm very weary of that single race determining classes, run groups, and, well, just about everything for the other 120+ races throughout the season. I don't know the actual data and Eric P didn't provide any in the presentation but I'm guessing there are at least 4000-5000 licensed drivers that may or may no be active. Yet, the club caters to the 600-900 drivers that attend a single race at the end of the year. It's the tail wagging the dog if there ever was one.
My biggest concern with this is that I can run an entire season minding my own business, and the next season my class can be eliminated, rendering my car worthless (again).
SCCA now talks about reducing and consolidating classes but by all means let's add CSX, SMX, SMT, SM2, C-spec, D-spec, FX and any number of other classes that nobody asked for.
