Trust me,
EVERYONE would love to do this cheaper. But you also have to have rules that make sense.
This forum isn't associated with the SCCA.
Wouldn't it be cheapest and easiest to run stock wheels?? Did your GTi come with stock 7" wheels? If it's an A1, you can get stock wheels for almost
FREE!!. So I guess I'm a little confused on where you're coming from?
Let me throw another question at you. The A1 front bearings are known weak point and should be changed multiple times a season for safety. Although not a bank breaker, it's still some coin. If Audi bearings were used with a little modification of the knuckle, they would rarely go bad and would save some money. So, do you think that should be allowed?
My point is it starts to open a can of worms. We can't make the rules based on cost. A new guy looking to race isn't going to make his dcision about IT based on the fact that 7" wheels are legal. It's still cheap to find a stock car (and wheels), put safety gear in it and race!
