    Except my boy Rob asked for 200lbs...at a minimum 100lbs...





    It's all good, he is the best dressed in the paddock.

    I didn't think you noticed my Flatspot Motorsport colored stripped shirt...... (Bright Blue with orange and white)

    I'll wear it again at Lime Rock later this month.

    If he get's a 100#'s off, I want my SIR off............but I'll settle for a 3mm increase. For that I'll let Rob wear your underwear (if you wear them) over his head @ LRP.

    170hp and 2,900lbs - sounds reasonable for ITS

    most other cars are in the neighborhood of 190hp and 2,850lbs

    I'll wear a Flatspot shirt but no underwear!

    Feel free to spit out some examples...I'll help:
    188 hp 944S - weighted based on known 'lower than average' power output in IT.
    189hp E36 - moot due to SIR. Would be 3200+ in unrestricted form.
    200hp Supra - 3300lbs
    195hp Prelude - 2905 and FWD!

    What else do you see 190+ hp?

    It's not all just about stock HP. If it was it would be the car-of-the month class.

    What else has 170hp and weighs 3,000lbs or more?

    What was the potential for this car when is was classified?

    25% increase over stock? 170 * 1.25 = 213
    30%? 170 * 1.30 = 221
    40%? 170 - 1.40 = 238
    more?

    Aero of a brick?
    Big 4 door sedan vs. 2 door sports cars?
    Every chassis produced had ABS standard? Any subtractor for that?

    Where can I find the classification sheets?

    I might point out that you built this car KNOWING it was 3000lbs. Help me undertand what you mean by the ABS thing. I don't understand.

    Let me see:
    Huge brakes
    1:1 5th gear
    Balanced chassis
    An estimated 30% increase in power
    180 stock ft/lbs
    10.5:1 compression (11:1 legal)
    Electronically controlled cam timing...

    You run on the podium with no aftermarket support after a year on track. Seems to me the results support the process.
