First, it's basically the same class
Stock sedan and mod sedan are also basically the same classes. By your logic you should run those two together...
Second, what exactly is the problem with running with them (occasionally if need be)?
Once in a blue moon, of course that's not a major problem. But if the class as a whole doesn't take off, then yes, there should be a stop put to it. For example, the first weekend up at Road Rage they ran the Foam and Rubber sedans together just because there were only 2 foam guys but there were 12 rubber guys. But since then they've gotten further into the season and more guys are returning to indoor. Again, look at the circumstances.
Because it accelerates a little faster off the corner?
I and others have had issues with this. It sucks when you set a guy up, pass them cleanly, then get run over by the person you just passed because they just ripped it. It absolutely sucks. I got nailed so hard it broke the rear bumper off my XXX-S and broke BOTH rear arms. This happened in a qualifier, and this same person wound up second to last qualifer in the C main, but he was bound and determined to beat me in that one corner...well he beat me..beat the hell out of my car that is...
I'll never forget the guy I saw at Trackside going all psycho on a marshall because HE was off line and couldn't see around the marshall.
Going nuts at marshalls isn't cool. Normally if you just say on the stand "Marshal, can you please take a step back" or left or right it isn't an issue. And most marshalls are more than happy to oblidge. But admittedly, things can get a little too serious from time to time at ANY track, not just Trackside.
If nobody pushes brushless, it will never change.
But you also have to pick your time and battles. The technology doesn't have the wide spread acceptance yet. One thing that's cool is that if you go to a major race to run brushless and don't have one, Novak will loan you one for free. Cool, but there's a down side. If you're not worried about practicing before hand, there's no incentive for someone to buy a brushless....yet.
Gordon, you're heart is in the right place. But I think you're a few years too early...
