    Default GT1/T1 question...I think

    Anyone know where a Howe chassis'ed roadster, fiberglass bodied with a 350ci/T10 tranny would run? I'm thinking T1 but don't know. Perhaps I could sneak it into ITA as the next gen RX7....LOL

    Sounds exotic - like dancers - fiberglass body? non-mass production chassis? -> SPO or GT

    T1? As in Touring? No way, dood; Touring cars are production-based, whereas a Howe chassis is a tube-frame. That's a GT car, all the way, likely GT-1...as in, you'll be racing against Trans-Am-type cars...best to read the rules carefully before you start building.

    If you're OK with racing regionals only, SPO is its home, but you need to get a copy of the locals rules, first.

    SPO it is, then Greg....I just bought the Howe chassis'ed roadster on page 90 of the new issue of Sports Car. If nothing else, will be a great track day car.

    Looks like a fun ride...and a bargain to boot!

    If you really want to blow some minds, try entering it in ASR...that should actually blow up a few computers...
