I think its great no matter who wins. I don't think you should break it up on price though. Its the "Ultimate Street Car Challenge", not the "Ultimate Budget Street Car". I mean, yea it would be nice to see some more reader friendly cars win, but oh well. We all know the rules. The readers pick the cars that get entered. Can't blame SCC for that. They put the form in the mag, if you want to enter, you fill it out and submit. Then, when the issue comes out with all the entrants in it, the readers vote for the cars they want to see in it. Then, SCC just runs the tests on a point basis. If the Vipers win, so be it. Its like watching the ALMS. Should they ban the Audi R8s because they win almost every time??? No They win because they have a car that takes full advantage of the rules in their division, and they have a team and company that know how to win. Same goes for Mumford and the Viper. Given the tests that everyone knew the cars were going to be tested on, his car was the one that took advantage of it the most. That, and the fact that he's such a great driver, and knows how to make a car go fast. Everyone knows by now what the testing is going to be like. If someone shows up with a car that just dominates, then so be it. All the better actually. It is the "Ultimate" street car.

Maybe i'm the one who's biased. I never had a thing for domestics. They just seem like gas guzzling drag queens with no handling capabilities.
btw, is your avatar the amuse supra? that's a dope car. did you see the MINES GTR? now that car is just crazy.

And yes, it is the Amuse Supra. Good eye.
EDIT: PMUM was Paul Mumford's (RIP) s/n. He dominated the last USCC.

There's a video around from the SCC challenge a few years ago with the red supra. You should see him doing the freestyle burnouts. So much smoke and spinning you can't even see the car. haha.

That goes for the year before, when they had the red supra, the viper took it again just cuz it had 23423434 hp. (I hope I don't start an import vs domestic argument)
