ECR and V8 cars

So to compare lap times with solid ITR/ITS time around here for Grand Am GS:

Lime Rock: 3 seconds faster
Watkins Glen: 9-10 seconds faster

Then others:

VIR: How does a 2:03.7 compare? Yikes!!!
Barber: 1:38.3

[JeffYoung]

About 13-14 seconds a lap quicker at VIR then, and about 7-8 at Barber.

[Ron Earp]

About 13-14 seconds a lap quicker at VIR then, and about 7-8 at Barber.

At VIR the stewards would probably perceive that as a problem if there was only one car in the group capable of that differential lap time.

two points of clarification.

1. The ITO rules are being restructured to lower the max HP and the speed potential in the class. As I mentioned in an earlier post, the current rules are being changed because many of the cars allowed in the current ITO rules are now STO cars.

2. I am already allow to race at VIR. I am allowed to race at Road Atlanta. I am not allowed to race at cmp and roebling and I am not allowed to race for points.

For what it's worth, when ITR was introduced, we had to lobby the committee pretty hard to be included. I'm afraid you may have an uphill battle.
