I'm curious about " ITA: Over 2499cc or any forced induction". The SCCA never allowed forced induction in any IT class, so why would we?
Good. IT used to be incredibly popular, you might consider ITD cars, too. ITS cars would actually fit into Big Bore pretty well, too. This is great. Thank you, VRG Board!
Are the new IT cars (miata) cars allowed at the PVGP at PittRace this year?
Allow slicks for vintage production racecars. You’ll get a lot of the SCCA cars that have been long parked back out.
