An exciting new series for the PCA and BMWCCA racer who wants more racing closer to home or doesn't want to sit out a one-car 13/13 infraction. We also welcome SCCA Improved Touring racers who are looking for tight competition and a level playing field.

This is a trial year. We will monitor participation and evaluate competitiveness throughout the season. The results will be compiled at the end of the year and used as necessary to adjust competitiveness within the classes. The classes will be launched as a full race series with plans to add sponsorship, contingency prizes, and "lead trophy" weight penalty/reward in 2004.

The series is being started by racers and designed for racers. Our philosophy is we believe the most enjoyable racing is when the competition is fender to fender from the green to the checker. We believe a series develops camaraderie and friendships. And we believe pitting one make against another encourages a friendly rivalry and fosters teamwork. Our goal is a friendly, fast, and safe environment, with equal emphasis on competitiveness and fun.

BMW E30 IT drivers, what do you think of this NASA series?

You're not afraid to tackle those Porsche's one-on-one are you?

For the joy of running competitively against the slowest ITA car to ever see the track!

Look at the power/weight ratios - the 924 belongs in ITB, and the 924 is consistent with the other ITB BMW's in GTS1. Remember - we're looking for an even playing field. Come out, see how you match up with us. If you're interested in seeing where you might be competitive - this is it. Race weights will be open to reevaluation and adjustment for 2004 as required to adjust competitiveness.
