    They need MORE rules if anything. SIMPLE rules. Consistently enforced body rules. Nobody seems to whine about rolling across the scales? Shocks? Get rid of reservoir quad adjustable shocks. Pick a Monroe Magnum that works. NO MODS ALLOWED! Get rid of coilovers. No 4-links. No aluminum suspension components. Either 3-link with big coils or leaf springs. Big coils on front. Weight jacks. Roll the whole industry back 50 years.

    Will the people building parts just jack the prices up? Probably.
    Yuck - no thanks. if I wanted to race a nostalgia car or a hobby stock I would, but I have no interest in those.

    Now you're getting warmer. Closer than most.

It becomes a lot less inviting when its 90, dusty, and you're on the road all the time.
    Funny thing is, we never needed a new rule. Bob Memmer saved it decades ago.

    Hoffman's car has no choice but to wheelie with all the droop it has.
