Being a 2-seat sports-car-based car makes the 370Z ineligible. And if you're wondering, STX has the same description but 3.1L-5.1L NA displacement.

Personally I think this is total BS. I have a hard time believing that we'd be destroying all the competition if they let us into STX. I definitely 370z gets the raw end of the deal in SCCA Solo classing. The real problem is, IMO, that the 370z is really "between" classes so the SCCA doesn't know what to do with it. It's either put it where it is now where we have to struggle to be competitive or drop us a class and then we'd have an advantage.
