As far as Mini Sprints EchoTecs etc. They are all based of of a standard Midget chassis. Sprints have classes right, they all share the same basic chassis but from there on they may be very different animals. They start out at 305's when I was coming up 302 sprints were the hot set up and some great drivers raced them, however the tires in those days were also very different.
Would having different classes for Midgets be too far off base?
Right now the way most rules are written we exclude one another from racing against one another. Like segregation once divided people in the past. What I wish would happen is that we racers would release all of these restrictive rules and allow all of these Midget chassis Based cars to race under the term MIDGET in perhaps several classes.

That link was a live broadcast of the Chili Bowl on the game. Think it had over 150 entries this year. There are three commentators... Brett Wheeler who is Australian, none other than Jackslash's own Sean Buckley who has found his inner race car driver and enjoys racing on there almost nightly, and then Mike Burba. Last night was the final night (Saturday in real life) we started on Sunday with the first of three prelim nights, last night they started with two "F" mains and raced all the way to the 55 lap A-Main. On the game its self you race from the cockpit view but last night what you watched was a live broadcast (such as Dirtvision, USAC Live, XSAN, etc.)
As for the names, I think lightning sprints is pretty catchy.
