SCCA is considering adding Pro Touring classes.

I agree with Tom. I don't really want to see a lot of strict rules. pro-touring cars a different and custom by design and an entire rule book would make them more of a spec class. Aftermarket subframes might be the only sperator I would use if you had enough cars show up to make two classes.

Love it. If this happens, I will AutoX with my local SCCA club.

I agree Ron!

Bryce's main point hit it on the head. The system, in and of itself, is not made for PT. PT is an expression of design, taste/personal preference and (at what) level of desire to compete. Our cars are not rules based whereas the the SCCA rule class book is.

All respect to George (I think that's his name) in the San Diego SCCA thread, but his comments about who fits where makes my head spin. Clearly delineates the difference between the SCCA and followers of this genre of cars.

I do like the proposed rule alignment with Good Guys abpve.
Oh and Bryce I don't think custom subs require a different class at this point. JMHO

Thanks Ron, I only think the subframe rule should be there IF there are enough cars for two classes. Maybe over 12 cars that run in PT.
