Katie,
We offer SM, and STS is "handled" by running Street Touring-Street Tire.
You get the same level of competition, actually more because you have to
beat
all the other Steet TIre cars to get a trophy.
The issue was that if you want to run STS in PAX class, you don't get to
use the STS index. Also, there is no separate STS trophy.
These are no biggies to me, but of course I am not going to run STS. I
figure
that if there are really people interested in running STS separately, I'll
support
it, but I don't want to add a class just because we could.
