Well... Good luck Marshall.
What cams did you decide to go with?
BTW...Since you won't be running ITS anymore would you care to share your dyno numbers by PM (if you don't mind)?
TIA

Marshall, are you sure that was the SIR you were holding? :DQuote:

Dan, since I think it was yours, I hope it was your SIR :D
decided to just run bmwcca in ITS trim (minus restrictor plate) for this summer. will change the car over next winter...unless it looks like the scca ITR class actually will happen.Quote:

hi steve,Quote:

two full MARRS seasons at ten races a season on this car. only missed one weekend i think.
will be down at vir for the sarrc/marrs event...running the same car in ITE. i must be a fool to do it though after the carnage of ITS running with GT1, GT2, ITE, T2 and ITE at MARRS 1 yesterday. sheesh, i'd rather run with the spec miata's...much more sane group. dj and i didn't exactly have a lot of racing fun, nor will the body repair we both now have to do be fun.

Marshall, VIR will be ok for you to run ITE. IMO. I'm worried again because of the SIR and what it might do to my gearing.

Marshall,
Which of the listed sanctioning body's rules does an ITS E36 conform to?
See You at VIR then. It can run ITE as an Ex Grand Am Cup or Ex World Challenge.Quote:

NASA has the new PT class that IT cars can fit in. Not 100% competitive but not horrible either from what I can read into the rules.

I understand that Steve, but does an ITS E36 meet the GAC or WC rules?Quote:

You could actually do more in GAC as they allow seam welding. Stock tank is good as well as suspension and cage rules. World Challenge allows more in the way of cells and gutting but it is not required. I can see no problem with crossover. Our GAC RX8's are pretty close to IT with a few exceptions.Quote:

Everything
none. i planned on asking the ite rules committee to accept bmwclub racing as the sanctioning body. several others already run in that config. nobody seems to care. the new ite class rep is ed york, another its bmw ex-patriot. running a vette now, but definitely sympathetic to the bmw issue....Quote:

if someone in ite makes a stink about a ex-its bmw running with them (or beating most of them again) i will just say bye-bye to scca altogether (in this car). still toying with srx7 instead.
Did you say RX7?? Walk towards the light!! :happy204:Quote:

local srx7 crowd is doing the hard sell and even has a car lined up for me. actually drove one at the arrc last year. hmmm, let's see..i can put an sir (and make it work) in the bmw, or buy an entire srx7 race car for the same price..... :D
So... Has anyone actually TRIED racing with an SIR on an E36, or are you guys so afraid to have to actually compete with the other cars on equal footing that you have decided just to jump ship based on speculation and here-say???
Just thought I'd ask...
I'm curious as to how the reaction might have differed had we just made the car weight 3200lbs...
Something tells me NOT that much different... :rolleyes:
I just got off the dyno with the SIR :unsure: , will be racing @ VIR next weekend with (legal E36) a lot of the guys that post here. I'm sure you get a full report.Quote:

We have a double at Pocono next weekend - there are at least two E-36 attending. We'll see how it goes.Quote:
