There was mention of a Porsche that automatically goes to ASP in Eric's post 
about the cost of Z06's and what he saw at Nationals.  What other Porsche was 
at Nationals that goes directly to ASP?

How many were imported?  I don't think it's the same thing...

Personally, I think a dominant $100K car would destroy SS. The NSX has never 
proven itself to be competitive in B/S.  If it dominated, it could still go to 
A/S or SS, before getting booted to ASP. 

Nothing is static.  It will all change as different models come out.  There's 
no crystal ball.  Just a bunch of fairly knowledgeable, well meaning 
volunteers, trying their best to do the best thing for their club.  Chill out a 
little.
