Off topic but was chatting to a mate who is a designer at xtrac - their seemless shift sequential boxes are 0ms torque interuption on the way up the box and now do clutchless downshifts too! Slightly more money than a Drenth though!
The problem IMO with having a standard class is that most of the people who'd be interested have already set off down one route or another with their car and won't want to swap suspension or change rose joints back to rubber for example to fit a standard class so to make it happen in any great numbers you'd effectly end up with a "standard engine class" rather than getting parity on everything else? Maybe having similar tech rules but 2 power to weight classes would be a way round it?
