I agree, and not just because I have two Rx-7s. =) For some reason,
the way the rule is interpreted allows Ford Mustangs to compete.
These are decidedly sports cars even if they happen to be built on
a sedan chassis. I'm not sure about that, not being a Ford guy. My
very much slower 84 Rx-7 can't run in SM but Mustangs can? That
really makes me scratch my head. Obviously the intent was there when
they wrote the rules but but it seems they missed some very obvious
exceptions. I love the intent of SM and I'm really looking forward to
see what people can do with the class but it should be a little more
specific in it's description of allowed cars. Perhaps I'll just get a
Cortina and put a Rover V-8 in it instead of further developing my CSP car. =)
I do have a solution though. Super Street Mod or Sports Street Mod.
Perhaps just rewriting the ruls for SM would do the job. Oh wait, my
input doesn't mean a darn thing does it? Afterall, I do have two seat
sports car.
