Joe,

A suggestion I would make would be not to use an R/T. The DOHC car is spec'd at 2650, that is 200 lbs heavier than the SOHC. I would suggest finding an old ACR SOHC SSC car to begin with. You will then not have to worry about the cage other than updating it to current rules. Have you read the rules for IT. You mentioned in another post that you have been building tuner Neons. Keep in mind there is a specific ruleset that you must build to. That means no short throw shifters, or ported cylinder heads.

You start with the usual Neon stuff; Iceman intake, header, Mopar PCM ( The 95 is the only true IT Cal ), Quaife, ect.

You will want to get some camber plates, and some good struts. If you start with an ACR however, you can get started racing without spending big bucks on struts and springs.

Those of us running the cars in ITA are still developing them, so new things are learned all the time.

Welcome to Club Racing!
