    Title: 1984 C4 Corvette Classification
    Class: ITR
    Request:
    I would like to request the classification of the 1984 C4 Corvette. Specs are below needed to classify the car per the ITCS:

    1984 Chevrolet Corvette
    205hp@4300 / 290 lb-ft@2800
    Curb weight 3200lbs
    V-8 OHV
    Bore and Stroke: 101.6mm x 88.4mm
    Intake valve: 1.94”
    Exhaust Valve: 1.50”
    Compression Ratio: 9.0:1
    Wheelbase: 96.2”
    Wheel sizes: Base: 16”x8.5” Z51 package: 16”x8.5”F, 16”x9.5”R
    Transmission ratios: 4 speed, 2.88, 1.91, 1.33, 1.00
    Brake size: 292.1mm F&R (11.5”)
    Independent front and rear suspension with transverse leaf springs.

    Using the classification process, I would see it playing out like this:
    205 x 1.25 x 11.25 = 2882.8 rounded to 2885lbs.

    If you care to research these cars, you will find out that they share the ‘cross-fire’ injection with the 1983 C3 L83 cars. Horrible for revs but decent torque. Pre tuned-port-injection. Single year on a single spec line.

    We have a build pending the weighting of the car. Thanks.

    I also wrote a letter a few weeks ago asking to class the C4 and 3.4L Camaro. Don't see any reason why both shouldn't be included in ITR/ITS respectively.
