I don't  see how that is possible, Otto.  From the very conception of  the
Classis Class there has been a rule preventing the changing out of  that
class within the year. Page, 57 of '07 rule books states, "Once a  vehicle in
the Classic Category has competed in an SCTA-BNI sanctioned  event, the
vehicle MUST REMAIN in that category for the current racing  season".




Hi Elon
 
Actually they didn't break the rule unless they ran the car at EM in the  
classic category earlier this year. If they ran ALT or CC they would still be  
cool. They switched to Classic after the other records were set.
 
I have "mixed" feelings of just switching the class of a car without doing  
anything but switch class designations on the car and go "cherry  picking" on 
soft or open records. Seems like a hollow victory to me but I'm  probably just 
jealous because they're doing it and I'm not!!! LOL
 
You know what they say, "A mans ego is only as big as his AA engine".
