No, You get rid of the multiple divisions of the same cars, PERIOD
Two each. Super LM's and Cratemodels, Sprints, 360 ASCS and 410s if you got something else. You race with one of them based on closeness of what you got.

Mods, I do the sport mod only. People are basically putting full up LM motors in Mods anymore and the econo mod isn't much cheaper than a sport/crate.

Mini Sprint, 450 and 600 only.


Some shows anymore, You could enter a 305 in a 410 race and by car count alone take more at the pay window than you would for SECOND at a 305 race. If your cars any good and tracks right. You could finish a lot higher than last. I seen Dallas Hewitt do it at Eldora. So don't say it can't be done. Also seen it done at Atomic. Seen Jessie Hockett take a ASCS 360 and finish third in a USAC race at Eldora.

That or you eliminate the motor size rule and just do a compression limit. Easy to test. It's why motors detonate instead of lasting a season or two.

i don't understand instituting rules that thru technolicological advancements just make it more and more expensive evertime someone can find ten more horses. FORD had a increible motor at one time, The twin overhead cam that was used in Sprints, Champs and Indy cars. NOPE, GOTTA OUTLAW THAT. A MOTOR that could race hundreds of miles. Three 100s or fifty lap races in a night and never hurt it. Nope, gotta have internal cams and keep reinventing the heads to add ten grand for every 10hp now. That 1970 motor could probably top ten a race today.
