When and who said it is a requirement for a new series to help SCCA out. With the current direction the BOD has taken in the last few years, who's interest have they been looking out for. It has not been the members.
Most of the BOD votes are split, tin-tops vote on formula car issues and formula car guys vote on tin-top issues.
It is amazing how the members in the club do not rally against the BOD until there is possibly some change to their class. Everyone forgets that any decision effects them regardless of the targeted class.
And do I plan to purchase an Indy car and go pro, no, but one of my daughters thinks she would like to and I really do not see what advantage SCCA brings to an up and coming young driver.
What about FE, FB, IT, SM, ST, FST, ...... did they not also water existing classes down?
It may be time to play golf.
