The only limitation for road course would be the disadvantage that an oval chassis would have for the right hand turns. Other than that, just as in the oval class, any chassis would potentially be allowed.

The biggest problem with road course is that the lap times are much more inconsistent. We haven't had enough people willing to try something like this on road course, so can't say for sure.

Might have to pitch this to the track owner and see if he is willing to give it a shot. I'm not sure how many we would attract though... when they hear us hooting and laughing on the stand during the oval sportsman class, they might just want to join us!
