On the otherhand, if things have been worked out, I look forward to running more CFR events in '09 and thank you
Having pulled multiple cars out of the tire wall (and concrete barrier) at Sunset bend, CFR was/is very concerned about cars with no forward roll bar braces running 150+ into that area. At Daytona the cars are going even faster, and they HAVE wadded up a few there as well. Neither Road Atlanta nor VIR have walls that close (and perpendicular) to the track where cars can achieve that speed.
And yes, CFR has agreed to join the rest of SEDIV in recognizing ITO as a SARRC class in 2009. The updated 2009 ITO rules (requiring the forward braces and additional fuel cell/tank protection) were approved at the SEDIV Mid-Year meeting in July.
