Kurt-
They are considered their own category, however, within MDR, they will be starting with/considered a part of Class 1400 (Prerunner).
For this year, JeepSpeeed has American Racing Wheels as the "title rights" sponsor of the series. They are posting a championship fund of approx. $6,000.00 for this year. JeepSpeed has a three-year plan. Look for the SCORE Baja 500, and the BITD Vegas to Reno, to be added to the JeepSpeed schedule beginning next year.
Like Doug pointed out, go to JeepSpeed.com for all the details. If you have questions beyond that, call Clive at JeepSpeed.
I'm looking forward to seeing this group run in Ridgecrest.
Talk to you later!
Tony
