Yes you did...

BTW--Luv it when there's (alleged) steward-on-steward violence.

Ha! Bet they don't work anymore races together.

What are the HP levels on the 16V VW's that got moved to ITB?

What was the feedback/request that got the RSX-S moved to ITS - weight not attainable? Who supplied the data? 2790lb curb weight with 200/210hp? Interesting.

I hate summaries that don't summarize anything:

STL
1. #13375 (Robert Schader) Specification Line Car
Thank you for your letter.
The CRB will continue to monitor the performance of the class and make adjustments as needed

127 IIRC.

Remember the whole WDYT discussion on this? Looks like they chose ITS for both.

I hate summaries that don't summarize anything:

No point in airing details of member dissatisfaction with our FWD/RWD weight process.

123hp. Not your typical flowing 16v head. A LOT of exhaust port restriction that could be addressed with porting and bigger exhaust cams, if it were not for IT rules...

That is a lot of weight for the GTI's small brakes (same as the A1 and A2 8v cars), and these cars carry more front end weight. I don't recall if any were available with manual steering, and obviously the head and intake is a bit heavier. Not sure that I see them keeping up with A3 VWs (maybe....), let alone Hondas in ITB.
