I'm leaning towards the new GTO. It doesn't feel as heavy as I thought. Need to practice more.

I just can't stoop to racing a mustang. But I may be able to race the grimstang. Or just get my butt kicked in a Chevy.

Thanks for showing up guys!

 

Should be good fun!

 

For those looking for the contingency logos this is what you need.....

 

 

So if you don't have those but need them let me know and I'll gift it over.

Me! You talking about the rear quarter panel? cool

That cars on my S/F if you want to pull it up and spin it around for a look see. The logo's nice but it's not real clean, looks good from about 5 feet back! Different configuration on the hood.

Cool.  Can you gift that? It doesn't have to be perfect, I'm going to shrink just "American Iron" down, and put it on a white rectangle

Sure, or if you're in a hurry, I think I sent the whole paint over to Max, so he should have all of it.

I was a complete mess last night with my braking points.  Sorry again for the huge incident at Sunset.

I'm thinking about allowing extra PI on the pre 77' cars. As long as it is PI that does not add power. So race flywheel race driveline and lighter wheels. 

 

 

We have less than a week before this starts so I would appreciate the feedback on this.

Not sure how that would work though.  What if someone already has added all the weight reduction items and is at 630, then what can they add?

Then those cars are already as light as they can be which is the goal. Maybe a max PI of 638 is a better idea because most of my older car builds ended up there anyhow. But I could have done a build with dubs and stock driveline and flywheel to 630 then add the lighter parts and that would be kind of douchey.

How about pre 77 cars are required to have race flywheel and driveline as well as one of the 4 or so lightest available wheels and if they do that then the can get a 638 PI

This is of no help. Everything I tuned already has this, except the flywheel, and that's useless PI. My opinion.

I would agree.  IMHO, it will cause more confusion than its worth.  Besides, in all the testing, you have a large mix of cars already

These cars are heavy and don't handle. Everything possible has most likely already been bolted on or cut out in this regard. That leaves the flywheel, and that's not of any real help. A few might make use of the rims, and there is some substantial weight reduct there, but most likely everyone already has. Is a few cases the cars benefitted from a few more pounds to compensate for the power.
