The Stock Box class is to allow participants with just a stock kit to be able to participate in an event, and actually stand a chance of winning. i.e. think of the 12 yr old kid who just got a Bit for a gift, but has no clue or money to buy or upgrade with parts and accessories, etc.

Good point on surface issues. In our proposal, time is not an issue when racing in pairs. It is simply who crosses first. Point of this being that events will execute more quickly if time isnt considered esp when there arent enough race officials to officiate, and there are too many participants to process. Runs are timed only to decide ties or same-frquency scenarios, with option to slalom instead. Also, not having a “time to beat” emphasizes consistent performance during eliminations. Side by side elimination races seem more compelling to watch, like theillegal quarter miles in San diego or in sacramento 😉

Gonna do a write up to address surface issues tonight or tomorrow. thanks for the suggestion.
