Ahhh, I see what this is about now.
Rick, STU exists today. And one of the rules in the existing STU is that you
gotta have 4 seats.
That rule is there for a very good reason - weight. The 2 seaters are very much
smaller and lighter than the 4 seaters, and they are also very rare in the
demographic that we are targeting here.
If we allow 2 seaters, we completly cut the core group out of the loop.
Now, if an enterprising soul wanted to take the new STU rules - once they are
approved - and change the eligibility requirements to allow only 2-seaters, and
call the class "Street Sports Unlimited" that would be a Good Thing. I would
support that. I think your audience is much smaller than the 4-seaters, and it's
harder to find them all in one place (STU can just go to the dragstip, or put
adds in SCC, Turbo, and Super Street) - but more power to you.
> What are afraid of? Competition or getting beat?
I'm afraid of marginalizing the core audience of STU
- 50% Honda Civics & Preludes
- 30% DSMs
- 10% Acura Integras
- 10% a mixture of M3s, Neons, VWs, Suburus, Cavaliers, Sunfires, Grand Prixs,
and maybe the odd Porsche. (There, spelled it right Mark. ;)
