How many ESP drivers are in SM this year? Looks like around 10 cars are old ESP cars. That would have brought your ESP total into the ballpark where it blows your 'numbers' away. AB Jeff Winchell <jw

In SM, there is 4 Mustangs, 2 Talons, and 2 Z28s. If those 8 cars were added to ESP, there would be 47 drivers. They would need to have another 20 ESP drivers to give ESP the proportion of the total

Don't forget the Supra's for a total of 10. There are only 37 in ESP this year. Add the 10 I speak of and you get 47 this year - WAY down from 50 last year - come on. Total numbers look pretty simila

Supras aren't in ESP. Attendence at nationals is up dramatically. What is ST? I'm having a hard time following ANY of your logic in these discussions.

And why do you suppose they're running there instead of ESP? That's it! The M3 in ESP was all a crafty plot by DG and the SM crowd to pump up their numbers! Ok guys, you've had your fun. Now please

Your inference doesn't follow from Mark's statement. It is possible for a class to be a ponycar class, and for non-ponycars to do well, and even from time to time win by a normal margin at the natio

Depends on how you read it, I suppose. If they'd left the turbo issue alone and a DSM actually won... oh yeah, there would have been a big outcry. Is 1.1 seconds overall really a large margin? Last y

If there is no complaint about the DSM's mixing it up in the top positions, I fail to see the gripe with the M3. The M3 is not dominating, Bob Tunnell is dominating. The other M3's in competition are
