Stock will be too slow for most to be interesting and that in itself will push the fast guys up. Also not being sponsored is a good point. While subjective could work. Most of the guys at our track run 13.5 and mod. Then when a big race comes drop and run stock. Which this should fix. *edit - while fix means it's a problem what I really mean is it should foster a more competitive environment rather than having the pro or the open checkbook guy that can wheel the ability to roll in and dominate just because.
I'm still all for a driver license type points system that pushes people up and gives the new comers something to work towards. Wouldn't that be sweet? Add legitimacy by having a license to race cars. A huge database with ranking of everyone. You can see how you compare on paper. Could be awesome.
