Most non-MSA meetings run to MSA rules. This supposed lack of rules only goes to show ignorance of the topic at hand.

On a meeting by meeting basis there is very little difference (aside from the need for a license). Excluding the cost of getting the license in the first place, costs are about the same and the level of competition is as good as the smaller MSA clubs with a few very good drivers who should really have moved on. Racing under the MSA guarantees a minimum standard of judiciary, safety et al whereas with non-MSA it depends on the club although, as previously stated, most run to MSA standards.

The pro & con of non-MSA racing comes down to one thing, flexibility. Non-MSA officials have a little more "wiggle room" when making decisions that the MSA officials don't have. In some cases, this is a good thing, in others a bad thing.
