Well maybe after NASA has been around for 60 plus years, we'll have more cars at our Championship weekend. Here in NASA Southeast we don't car count issues, most of our events, Road Atlanta especially draws 375-450 cars. Yes the PT car counts aren't the greatest, but it's still a growing class only about 5 years old with new cars making the move from TT.
The local SCCA regions are loosing IT cars annually, with ITB-ITC almost completely depleated. I raced IT from 1986 to 2000 and was never allowed to relocated my battery, put in NASCAR door bars or install Lexan window. Hell the first few years I couldn't even remove the passenger seat. I like the NASA rule set better, cause I can choose the mods I want and be as stock or modified as I want.
With all the free mods availible, I will most likely only move up one class from base classing, so my '87 Celica GTS which is based as PTF will fit nicely in PTE and be extremely competitive. One thing our guys like about PT here, is they can run TT, PT, or SM and lots are running TT, PT, or Honda Challenge. The Corvette guys really like it cause they can run TT, PT, and ST2 all in the same weekend if they like.

PS: I used to be a NASA hater, till I made the switch, now every weekend is a joy not a struggle with politics!!
