Ok, not to continue any bad blood here but why all the animosity against mk3 VW's. I seem to remember that only a few years ago the car was classed in ITA and was not competitive.
Chris Shafsma (SP? sorry) in CHI. region has consistently kicked my butt on shorter courses in his MK2 (which is very much a B car). From my experience (having a track record at Road America) the mk3 chassis belongs on a longer course like what was witnessed at the ARRC this year. I can promise all that if the race was on a 2 mile course, the results would be much different.
In all honesty this is the first year that many people including myself have gone out and done 10/10 builds on this chassis. It is a natural progression for the sport and I feel it belongs in B at the same weight.
On to the tech and tear downs...

Or we could just start calling ITB Spec-Golf, instead.
If this is the first year that people have done 10/10 builds, and the car is ALREADY dominating, what will happen when people REALLY get them tuned. It is really a shame that the defacto national championship for IT only really has one car competitive for ITB.
Edit: Well, that is not totally true. Vaughan's 924 and Douglas Spencer's 320i were SOMEWHAT close...but after that, the rest of the field was 3sec+ back!
