Street tires in IT? My Review

[Knestis]

It's a legitimate point that engines are simply better than they were when the IT eligibility window opened (1968). It's also fair to propose that internal tweaks simply aren't going to return the competitive value as a typical "real" IT build on a less optimized-as-stock engine. But the stock-engines model, as attractive as it might seem, is a different category - Touring.

Touring is a convergence between where "trunk kit" SS was not long ago and what IT started as. Problem is that the slowest class T4 is full of ITS-ish cars. You're talking about stock engines, in ITC-ITB power land, with IT suspension. You're talking about B Spec. Plug the next-higher performance envelope of new cars into the mix and call it T5. Take the last step and allow springs/dampers/bars (like Touring SHOULD do anyway). Soup.
