123.75 IT hp * 17 = 2104 lbs

Less 50 lbs for the strut front suspension = 2054 lbs.

That's 576 lbs less than the GCR weight of 2630 lbs!!

And the Audi guys are worried about a mere 200 lbs?

No -50 for strut suspension and AGAIN, we use 25% as the first step in the process, it is NOT locked in as such. That 2.2L had a ton of iterations so it would be one for much more research. That stock HP level is much more an ITC car than an ITB car.

But again, cars like this DO SCARE me. They DO have the potential to rip up a class if that stock power number was a dumbed down 80's number that wakes up with no emission equipment and a good exhaust. It would be my vote to have to have the competitor supply a ton of information for cars of that era so that a much more educated guys can be made.
