Duane, You know I have a ton of respect for you and what you do. I'm not going to disagree with you here. What I will say to you is this. There IS a way. In fact, as I have said many many times, there are probably about a JILLION ways, to formulate an equitable set of parameters that allow combo cars to compete on the same track as the purpose built cars What is important here, is to decide once and for all that we WILL accomplish this goal for the betterment of the sport overall, and then to make the committment to DO IT. It is not important, and in fact i think it is counter productive, to get too bogged down in the fine details right now. If 55% is not the right thing to do then lets make an adjustment there, but lets keep our eye on the prize - lets not say "We Can't"

For God's sake - we put a man on the moon... You trying to tell me we can't do this if we put our minds to it?

I have had this conversation with so many racers for so many years.... Racers always want to get down into the fine details, they always want to give THEIR exact version of HOW it should be done. I understand all of that but what I'm proposing here is that we all, as a group, take one big step back and look at what needs to be done to save the sport. Then, we can go about the work of accomplishing that goal. Ths is not rocket science, folks.
