The national participation numbers have been out for awhile. The regional numbers, for all classes, will be up on SCCA.com in a day or so. Nationals: 1095 total, over 71 races - average 15.4 Regionals: 3350 total, over 236 races - average 14.1
Add in regional, only, classes, over the 236 races: SMT - 523 entries SSM - 878 entries
How many SM cars ran regionally in the ITA class is anyone's guess. Look for the complete list in a few days. wheel

Unfortunately, I don't think that data is readily available. Maybe it is somewhere in the deep dark recesses of the the entries. Somebody, without a real life, could mine those depths. wheel

Andy, if your speaking to me. I don't know Brian, weather he can or would or how good his search engine is. If everything happened... I would guess if they double dipped, SM/ITA, you could tell the difference. J~

The numbers for ITA, which have no break down on make or prep level are:
2008 total entries (same 236 races) for 8.51 cars per event. CenDiv 35 GL 184 MiDiv 135 NE 470 NORPAC 756 Rockies 24 SE 505 SOPAC 106 SW 93
You would have to comment on your division, based on how many of the ITA cars are SM's doing double duty. In Midiv, I would guess the numbers are pretty high. wheel

I'd guess there are very few "pure ITA" Miatas. Most regions have the rule where if you double dip you have to do it in full SM trim (to make the whiner 1.6 owners happy ) Most of the ITA Miatas out there are people double dipping.
If you want a well prepped ITA car you're talking a whole different motor but around here at least 2 of the top 3 for ITA points were pure SM so why bother?

Can I ask a bad question hear then what are the ITA specs as compared to SM?
