Sorry, but I think this kind of thinking is what kills car counts. Go to a race in Kentucky and you'll see 5 or 6 classes with 5 or 6 cars in each. That is what you get whenever the next idea to save racing comes along. Don't add another class, establish cost saving measures for the class you already have. The impossiblity of everyone agreeing how to cut costs always kills any discussion of real positive changes. It has already happened to Late Models, it is happening to Sprint cars now. The end of big late model fields began with escalating costs and the addition of a modified class was the nail in the coffin for most local Late Model racing. Same will happen when you start adding new divisions of sprints. You'll still get 18 to 20 cars but they'll be in three different classes. Costs ran Wing sprints out of Indiana, it will eventually get Non Wing sprints too. Hope I'm wrong.
