I have built Midgets Sprints and Modifieds all Dirt -- With that said, the Differences between to 2 cars Wing/ Wingless isn't all that and can be easily overcome. Midgets in ARDC which is the club I ran with ran Wings and Wingless races in the same season.

The biggest problem with wingless Sprints are they don't have Wing Mounts which aren't hard to weld on or order a Chassis with them. Teams would just have to learn how to set up the cars differently. The differences you talk about are MINOR and it isn't hard to convert them. The Biggest thing is what bars and shock settings to use for handling differences
