The biggest killer of people from the sport is coming down to their local track with their spanking new kits, being lumped into 540, and getting their butts handed to them by the guys who have been racing 540 for years and have big budgets.
Scott I definately agree with the 6mths to 1 year time limit for rookie class.
As you say the new people get lumped into 540 and this is where we need to change the thinking of the clubs.

Instead of lumping them into 540 why dont we make a seperate class for them to have a race in.
