Interesting debate.
A few observations. The Hawkes Bay Car Club set up a "BOS" class some years ago. I believe credit for creating this class should actualy go to the Manawatu CC. BOS is an acronym for Bucket Of Shit. Basically regs said you had to race a car which cost less than $250. This was later raised to $500 (thats inflation). For several years the class was huge in both Clubs-in the case of the HBCC we were regularly getting 20 or more entries in the BOS class and 30 entries in total.ie 2/3rds of he entries were BOS cars. The past 2 seasons we had 1 BOS car! It is hard to imagine a cheaper form of motorsport. Yet it is not well supported. So we can't blame cost for the low number of entries.
