I believe it got added because it actually runs on a slick and was protested earlier at a HST round in one of the DOT classes.
So our Touring 3 guys can't read the regs? TCS clearly specifies what tires they're
required to run ("BF Goodrich G-Force Slick").
Sequential has been allowed in T3 with +100 pounds.
I'm sure our Touring and Production scrutineers are well-versed in the Global MX-5 Cup regulations.
Regardless, I sincerely doubt this has anything to do with a protest. The way things have been run these last several years, it's all about "who ya know". Find a buddy on the CRB and convince him you want to buy some pro car and "have a place to play" and next thing you know we're adding 80s GTP, 90s World SportsCar, and 00s LMP cars into "Grand Touring X".
