There are "2 Types of Pro Touring Cars"

1) Racing Styles of Pro Touring Cars

An older (car prior to 1976) custom race car built to be run on the street, "Legally", but can also drive safely on multiple racetracks. Specific racing classes are not part of a Pro-touring cars, however some are designed to emulate specific Road Racing classes of the past, that help improve the overall theme and feel of the cars.

2) Street Styles of Pro Touring Cars

Cars (Originally built prior to 1976) that have conveniences normally associated with street only driven cars (a/c, P/S, P/B, Tilt Wheel, Carpet, comfortable seats etc.) However, these cars will also have successfully implemented many facets of racing technology. (Race inspired suspensions, brakes, engines etc.) The two technologies are balanced in an effort to create a comfortable fast and well handling sports car.

Let me know where I'm wrong.

You analysis is inherently flawed. You state there are only two type of PT cars. Yet, according to you, both type exclude makes build after 1976.

Where did you come up with pre-1976? That's B.S. IMO. So my 1978 Trans Am can't be a PT car?
