Basically it applies a single street tire index to people driving in stock classes, similar to how we PAX the local SK classes. So basically, if I'm driving in CS, I can drive my car on R comps, or I can drive it on 140+ treadwear tires and take a handicap. But all stock class competitors compete head to head, regardless what kind of tire they choose to run on.
Compared to other proposals I've heard, here are the pros, as I see it:
* Maintains a single set of stock classes, rather than doubling the existing set or even adding a single additional class
* Doesn't force R-comp drivers to abandon the setups they spent so much time and money developing
* Doesn't force SK drivers to blow out their tire budget
* Doesn't rely on the fickle PAX calculation to combine multiple classes like SK1 and SK2
* Increases the overall pool of stock drivers, rather than excluding a potentially large subset or driving them to other classes
The only con I could come up with is:
* How would the SK index be developed and who would develop it?
Okay, have at it!
