"So you limit the SBC and BBC -- how? Make them run D? Have you seen any roadster run that class that's been sitting around for 50 years? 30 years? No? Gee -- I thought that was why it was started.
How about making a myriad of classes, blown and unblown, gas and fuel -- make it a new category.
With Bonneville the condition it's in, and the prognosis for the future, why not also have sprung and unsprung classes in the category? 32 grille and non-32 grille? Light and dark colors? We know (?) the dark colors absorb the sun and allow the air to pass over more easily (or not?).
Add a few more classes to the category, it'll be just like the bikes -- wedge, hemi, underhead and overhead, count the valves, dry sump or wet, 32 and under, 32 and over, 10% speed added for Ts, participation trophies, best appearing, best appearing crew, best appearing push vehicle, farthest from Wendover, driven from Wendover, etc.
What? That's ridiculous? How about the whole premise for the class and how that's worked out?

That's what I said last January. Don't think it needs much of an update.
