Autoxers buy the cars they buy because they expect them to be competitive in
their class. Stock class drivers turn their cars over relatively quickly
anyway, I imagine the mode would be 2-3 years. If such a rule were announced
two or three years in advance; let's see, in 2003 you'd have to upgrade a '91
Miata to a '97, which at that point would be a seven year old car. I think you
can handle the depreciation cost between a twelve year old and seven year old
Miata, Scot.
