I got belt f%^&$ed MANY times, ran a serpentine belt as far back as 2014 I think, only advantage it offered was not DNF'ng every other run group...

Now to find 75 lbs to take out after removing the ballast and spare....The driver who could stand to lose 75 lbs and learn to drive faster. It always seems to come down to the driver....

How fast are you SC guys spinning those 3.0 engines?!?! I shift at up to 7500 and in hundreds of sessions never threw a belt. Maybe the SC setup is different than the early cars?
Now I can run my 2.7RS in Vintage or (ballasted) in 911 Cup.... would be more competitive in Cup I think...

911 E cars -> 911 CUP !!!!! Finally correct rules.
You read it right. PCA has finally fixed the 911 E cars. We are all moving to 911 Cup now. No more TD tires. Complete open tire rules (Hoosier R7 or whatever you want, except still no slicks). The only change from E stock is to drop 150 pounds, all else the same. So fellas, change your registration to 911 CUP now for Sebring. (on clubreg, go to edit your registration and change the class to 911 CUP, it is at the top of the pull down menu, first entry).

Hi Clarke,
E is unchanged. I’m trying to get all the air cooled cars from D, E and F into 911 Cup, so for 2020 911 Cup is an open tire and weight reduced by 150 pounds for E cars. D spec cars can run 150 pounds light and run carbs in 911 Cup, though I think the motor swap [D 3.0L to E 3.0L] like you did is a better idea if they are serious. F cars can run 911 Cup at regular F spec.
