Uh, Dennis, not quite. Just ask the F125 crowd how well this standard has
been applied. They've met the standard and STILL haven't gained national
status. And F125 cars can't run in any other class and no cars from any
other class can run int F125, so those guys and gals are REALLY dedicated
to get their class off the ground to a long heartbreak from SCCA.
