John,
You and Larry (and even Mike D. :-)) are class acts. I didn't mean to imply
that every pony car driver had a problem with the Evos. But elsewhere, even
some DSP drivers are jumping on the Evo-bashing ban wagon. Heck, even some
SM drivers (you know who you are) are shaking in their boots! :-)

For the record,
I agree with Navid, on concrete I think the V8's v. Evo/Subi battle is still
close.
Not all Camaro/Mustang drivers "hate Evos" and want them out of our class.
Larry Baker and I compete and drive as hard as we can and accept the
challenge given to us.
No matter what, we always have fun and love throwing our 3500# cars around,
whether it be asphalt, concrete (AAS events, 3rd Gear woohoo), or rallycross
at Golden Gate Fields : )

Evos are evil! They should be banned from any kind of Motorsport
competition! And whoever drives one of them is a cheater because we know
how easy it is to cheat in these evil cars. How else would you explain a
4-door sedan with almost 1/3 the displacement winning against those fine
'mercan "sportcars"?!?!?
Sorry about the rant. I'm just frustrated by all the Evo bashing on the
sccaforums by a bunch of people who got their egos bruised. Evos should go
to BSP once the SCCA Nationals moves to asphalt. On grippy concrete, a
well-prepared Camaro driven by a National level driver is competitive with a
similarly well-prepared and driven Evo. What happens at a local event, say
at Golden Gate Fields, should have no bearing on the classing of the cars.
There are too many variables in the car preparations, driver skills, and
surfaces at local events.
