Yeah but you have to have a 3.09 or higher gear ratio to compete...

Mark,
Would you be in GT4? Looks like a RELATIVELY level playing field. You should wipe up.

problem is, with the 911s, they can get into the 2200lb range and with 250hp at the wheels, still be in our class of GT4S, but these rule makers forget about the absolute weight factor (as i aways say!)
they forget that braking and cornering happen MORE of the time in a race than just acceleration.

Ya. What is up with that? It seems all of the left coast, I mean West coast drivers are getting all of the press.

I'm in, but about all I'm useful for is changing tires and talking trash to the other teams.

Just weighed my car...

For the sake of saying so, my street car would fall under the GTS3 class with a 3300lb/300 RWHP rating. Cool!!

Now I really should go find a race car to play with!

I'm planning on running this series once I finish my car and have the time. Hopefully she will be done by spring-time.
