So, looking at the success of the Solstice in SSB - where would this car be classed in IT? Could it be classed in IT?

Is the Saturn Sky also classified the same?

Hey, I'm just askin' - doesn't mean I already have a deposit on one or anything....maybe. I only just returned to ITS for three races - I got at least one full NARRC effort for ITS left in me. My beater car did pretty well against the top flight cars.
I think the Solstice would be an expensive car to buy and run in IT and I agree that it might not do well against much lighter cars.
Remember, I still have my '98 Boxster to develop into an ITR car when I get tired of driving it on the street. Now that ride would do VERY well in ITS - not sure about R. I'll have to do some rules lawyering...

The porsche is an S model not a S2 - I think it has some potential. I have upgraded the suspension and installed good safety equipment. I have not touched the motor or electronics yet with exception of timing belt and pulleys. The IT Festival at Mid Ohio was the 2nd time out with new suspension and only got in quallifing as we had an engine electrical fire. It seems a wire to the sensor on the power steering unit got pinched and shorted out causing a meltdown of complete engine harness. After multiple tries, I finally got the correct harness only to discover that the DME unit also was fried. Since there was no time to get one before the last events here in the northeast, we called it a season but will be ready for next year. This car is an absolute blast to drive!
P.S. Anyone want a good AS Mustang ?? Still have it .....
Oh, man, that sucks Ray! Stupid little things, eh? Well, glad to hear you've finally got it all diagnosed... better luck next year!
I've got the feelers out for an S2 but I'm really keen to see if I can find a 968. The more I research this car the more I think it's got that class dominant potential. RX8 would be the smart money if the weight comes down.
Ray - looking forward to racing you in "S" next year.
