sounds correct, except I get 646.9 as your PI. Remember that a 102 x 76.4 is 3746cc, not 3800cc. Add a little weight and you can be at the top of GT4

I don't think there is a missing page. These are just the changes and item 24 says the table at the end of the document is to explaine the 4 classes going to 6.
Excellent, I can just take a razor blade to my "E" and make it a "F"!

Wow, I hope Santa is going to be generous this year. Single-mass flywheel, LSD, lots of work... Can I still say "ho, ho, ho"?

That will be cool! Depending on the field, I can add weight and make sure I have other people in my class. I raced at CMP last week and was the only GT2s car. I would much rather have folks to race with.

ok...so I have a Bstock car as per the 2007 rules...its a 996tt. What does "i" or "j" or "k" have to do with that (if that is, indeed, the old system)? If "j" and "k" are lumped into B...then that means I have to run with 996gt2s????? If so that completely blows...

I think this will turn out to be one of the best if not the best class as far as growing fields and close racing.

You (996tt) are now in J.
GT2 is now in K.
The cars that were in classes J or K per the old rules are now both in A.

Hmmm. So all I need to do is build my spare motor into a 3.8, and pop in a 6 speed and look out GT4! Don't even have to pull out any weight.



Now how much was that again? $25K, $30K?

Does this mean the DE group colors will be inverted? The Boston Dentist will get moved from Green to Black!
