- I was referring to the more radical cars in P/M. I do agree with your point with regards to a CM car. They are not cheap, but if maintained and driven right, they are almost bulletproof. My point wa

- Just for the record, I'm a Prepared guy that runs Pros. To be fairly brutal, that mostly sounds like whining. I could say the same things about "standard" autox courses. Well, indexes are out now (e

- In my opinion the main reason you don't get a lot of Prep/Mod cars at Pros is that, at least here on the west coast, it's difficult to get enough cars to show up to meet the 5 cars/class minimum. If

- IMHO, I don't think Prep/Mod guys don't participate in Pros because they have always been geared towards the Stock/SP classes. The largest deterrent was the fact that P/M guys had to run on an index.

- I agree with Alan. CM in a Pro Solo is a lot of fun, on essentially any likely Pro Course. In the East and Midwest, the most fun years for CM were roughly 93 - 95 or so. Lots of cars with lots of cur

- Try a CM Formula Ford. Race clutches can last for years. New slicks are about $600 per set (compare that to trying to keep tires on an SS, AS, or FS car) and you really never "wear" them out. The car
