I'm a tech official in the UK (safety tech licensed with the 'eligibility
tech still to be worked on).
There must be at least half a dozen series you can run a Spridget in. Almost
no-one bothers to run a 948 or 1098cc engine in any car except for those rare
cars that are FIA compliant. So, no shortage of 1275/1380cc Frogeye Sprites.
There are class rules around what you do the engine, suspension, brakes, etc
and minimum weights. So, you might have one class all on SU carbs and
treaded tyres while the fully modified class will see a lot of Frogeyes on
slicks
with a Weber DCOE. Obviously the fully modified classes are faster and cost
more to run in. Often one or more classes will run in the same race.
You can also run a Spridget in other series - classic sportscars or whatever
with a similar roadgoing or modified basis for all the cars.
