Jim,
I was saying NOT to allow the people to compete in a class, but to just let them run time shots all day. That way they don't interfere with people competing. As for the muffler rule, Sundays are usually an open headder day at Island anyhow. Its a good idea to keep the street cars street cars, but again, to get the turnout, and even to give the spectators something other than street cars to watch, I think it'd be cool to have a few not so street cars there racing. (For instance, I'm working on setting up a match race between me in a 8.50 67 Camaro and my dad's friend in a 7.60 69 camaro, it'll put on a good show)

There are also very rarely (i could even take a gander at saying there arent any) 'funny cars' (center driven) that will show up regardless of a passenger seat rule. People who build those cars will only race them for BIG money. At any given bracket race, 99-100% of the cars driven even in Super Pro are left driven (with the obvious exception of dragsters, which wouldnt be an issue since they're obviously not f-bodies)

Tim,
I wasnt trying to give you a hard time at all about the rules. I understand the classes plain and simple, and the rules for them are good. As long as you agree to letting people run time shots if they have no passenger seat or not the correct exhaust or whatever reason they cant run in a class, then I agree with all your rules completely.
