Yeah I noticed that little loop hole a while back.

Most of the new stuff is coming off the show room running well under the normal roll bar rule, so they weren't participating at the local tracks.

Funny how they bend the rules to get more cars. Now, as long as they don't exceed 135 mph or dip under 10.0 they are good to run all day with just a helmet. I'm surprised the insurance companies aren't going ape chit over that deal.

Yet us old guys with classics that don't want to cut up their cars and run under the rule are SOL. There just isn't enough of us old car guys running anymore for them to care. Sad, because I don't go to the track to watch new cars run. And they wonder why tracks are closing.
