I don't think you will need an elimination system if it's a Time Attack Style event. Simply just whomever is fastest lap times in their respected class.

FF - F/I
FF - N/A
RWD - F/I
RWD......etc..

Or if you make strict regulations, then you can classify what is a Limited and an Unlimited (Street) classes.

Depending on the times who knows... A lot of people will be new at this, so instead of making 5-6 laps at one point in the day then having nothing to do, I'd like people to be able to race again later in the afternoon.

As I said we're still making the rules and regulations. The FF F/I F NA is part of it, with the extreme engine builders and chassis possibly getting their own class. We shall see as the deadline approaches.

Thanks for the input man.

Yeah, I'm with aen that my MAIN priority is getting tuned, but I'd like some track time as well...preferably AFTER I'm tuned

Next priority is just meeting the Dezod guys and all the tricked out tC owners!

Any chance of getting a mobile Dyno out there?

x2. Chris I'll roll with you. If this is an open event. I'll hit up my friends at Stop-Tech to see if they'd bring the vette out. Maybe Chris or I could even share trailer space. Or if they can't go...borrow/rent the trailer to save the miles on our cars.

This seems pretty f-ing awesome.

Yeah It lays waste to the tc and it has a sixth gear two more doors 15 more hp and torque and a lsd. Seems like a wiser choice for the racing I want to be doing.

I remember when I was gonna get my tC I looked at the Spec V and carsdirect.com had them for $13,800 and MSRP was $18K+. I almost bought it just because of the price but the tC was just nicer looking to me.



I can't wait for this. I already started saving for the trip. Hopefully I can save spare change and extra hours money to pay for it.

Yeah, my buddy had a S-er spec v...that thing just fell apart...engine and drive train were top nothc, but stupid stuff on the interior kep failing, like power windows, climate controll *****...just really poor quality. But I guess if your stripping it for the track, it's fine. I wish he still had it so I could race him with my boosted tC.
