Even though all of us are awed by the quality of all of the cars that are capable of winning a SMOTY, to most of us, they are not representative of the street/race trend of todays builds. Maybe there needs to be a new award that is more reflective of the direction our sport is headed. Since design is still a quarter of the points at OUSCI, and most of our cars are still street driven. It would seem that we're looking at an award that would take form and function into consideration. Something short of SMOTY, it would honor design, but the award would also recognize the race car focus and capabilities that are major goals of an increasing number of current builds.

To that end I propose the Street Car Racer Of The Year Award, the SCROTY. And IMO BLU BALZ has this one in the bag.
