Not Ranked
Before you all run out and get slicks.
The organising committee will be meeting tonight to discuss this exact point.
Last year we had a large number of cars running in the Anaconda class because of the popularity of the imported "road/track" tyres.
These drivers were pulled from the other classes because of the obvious advantage these tyres provide.
Running slicks would provide a huge advantage again over these tyres and as such would not allow for the most level of playing field in the Anaconda class.
We have only had 2 cars in the past 5 years that have run slicks. The drivers entered all events and times recorded, but agreed not to be classified in the official results.
It's getting harder and harder to fairly classify the cars in these types of events.
May be time to talk to NSW about re-gigging the classes at both major events and come up with a new National classification system that all states can use.
