Pat,
I guess you took too quick a look at my post. There are BIG changes
proposed in there. Shrinking the number of classes in Stock, Street
Touring and Street Prepared from 34 to 16 by putting ladies into the next
lower class. Putting all 3 categories (S, ST and SP) in the same
continuum isn't simply sorting by class PAX. What this does is set up the
template by which the SEB could start moving cars up and down classes in
the future.
Going in and moving cars around from the current class structure would be
a waste of time. Any kind of adjustments like that should be done on a
committee basis. The SEB is very well suited for that task.
My main concern was to get the classing to be ranked fastest to slowest.
Now, if class bumping is necessary in the local region or at a Pro, it
isn't complicated. Ladies know exactly which class they have to compete
in but they know they will be pitted against everyone in that class and
won't just have the opportunity to win a meaningless trophy because they
didn't have any competition.
