Your missing the fact that a number of us do this as a hobby. Personally I have no interest in running Mod, I would have to rebuild the car weekly, a crash is very costly and here is the number one reason for me personally, it is just to fast for my OLD ass... It is fun to watch, but 17.5 or 13.5 is all I care to handle. I want to go race, and increase my skills have fun.
Now if you do not agree, ok you have your path you have the classes that meet your requirements. Why is it so hard to allow the others to have a class that meets their requirements? No one is asking you to race it.
I know, most will say run VTA.... While I 100% agree with this structure of the class, I have no interest in the bodies, tires or that damn Driver figure.. Again I 100% agree with VTA, just like off-road, it is not for me.
