Charlie,
It's always nice to see you jump to conclusions.  :^) The GT2 is a bit more 
and agreeably not a SS car. No one mentioned the GT2. It is like the Lotus 
Elan (M100, Isuzu drive train) not being allowed in Stock. How about a GT3? 
Similarly priced to other stock cars (see the B Stock NSX ($89k) and Viper 
($86k). To exclude a GT3 to "protect" the Vettes, doesn't "fly." It is 
"Super Stock" isn't it? What does happen when the Z06 is no longer competitive?
