I gotta say something. Don't wanna be the jerk but someone has to be. Can we please break up the V6 class? How is it fair for me, a car with a CAI only, going up against a force inducted car? It's not fair in the slightest

We've tried that twice before. If we have enough cars we will... but will have to wait and see if that happens. Track time decision for this one.

This is the exact setup as last year and I don't believe we had a single V6 FI car.
