As you know, numbers often breeds competition.

Spec Racer Ford thank you very much

If I had to choose any class in the club racing levelnot just PCA with an unlimited budget it would either be D Sports Racer, Formula Ford, or Spec Racer Ford with a slight lean towards SRF.

I'd still pick cup cars. Huge fields of them in the bigger PCA races, plus you can run then in some pro series.

Again, can't beat E class. Many of the best drivers in all of PCA race in E class.

I've considered moving to many different classes/cars over the last year or so (just ask Chris M)... F Prepared (my car), a G class 964, GT-3 or 4... But in the end, in my opinion, you absolutely can't beat the competition in E class... both in terms of numbers of cars and overall skill.

F class

Toying turning the 964 in my garage into a G car. It just needs a cage since the suspension is already done and has big brakes and the stock ones are long gone.

If I had it to do all over again Id choose e. Cups would be fun as well but speed is not everything to me, just having lots of competition is just as much fun. With my funds I consider anything in front of me a challenge so it really does not matter what letter is on the car unless Im holding up tight competiton and Ill let them have at it.

What class would a 550 Spyder race in? With my lack of talent, that's where I would have the greatest chance of dominating and keeping the car/sponsorship going beyond one year.
