Reviewing the current SCCA IT rules, 1968-1973 911 T's and E's are classed in ITS. Anyone running these cars in this class? Is this a recent addition (this year?).

Yes, it is new, but as I had heard (sorry, don't know my 911's), the combination of wheebase, year, and engine they'd specified did not exist. I believe efforts are underway to correct this.

the 68 is a swb.. 69 up is lwb.. dosent make much sense.

Yes, I saw that they specified the 2.0 motor. My thoughts were that they specified the smaller motor to limit the competitiveness.

I am supprised and glad that SCCA provided a place for 911's to race.

Yes, the specs were really screwed up and they are in the process of being reset. Only the 2.0 liter has been classed, but IIRC the weight is quite favorable. It might be the next hot ticket.

Do you have to use the carburetors or fuel injection that came on the car for the year car you are using? If you build a 1969 911T, can you use a 1969 911E motor? Do you have to pick the year car and model (T or E) you are going to build and use the fuel delivery system as provided by the factory for that year and model As we know there are 3 different engine sizes, with 4 or more different fuel systems for the year cars indicated.

If these and other questions are the issues being worked out, I understand. Adding 911's to IT is very interesting. It would make for a enjoyable project to build and race a 911.

Nearly certainly you would have to use the stock fuel delivery device as well.

Yeah, it has to be stock if fuel injected. There's some degree of option to switch carbs - sorry, I'm not too familiar with rules pertaining to carbs, for obvious reasons - and the engine will be specified, by model as well as by displacement. Engine could be swapped from a T to an E or vice versa ONLY if the 911E and 911T were listed on the same line of the GCR/ITCS.

If you think it would be an enjoyable project, you may wish to hang out at improvedtouring.com, and get familiar with the environment - make sure it still sounds like fun! Think you can beat an E36 325? I've heard they're hella fast...
