I did not have any input, other than bitching Ed to get his ass to work

 

Roll bar and cage are different, most cages(especially costumed) have door bar as well, in that case you have to remove the door panel of course. Most people use DOM pipe instead of expensive cormolly for cages, if you have experiences of making a rollcage or bar, you will know how heavy those DOM pipe is. A DOM based 6-7 point cage with door bars and harness bar weight more than 200lbs, how much total weight for door panels, carpet, plastic covers?

I don't think rules should made to match several cars, you have to working on your cars by follow those rule. So if there is no way to classified by power/weight ratio, at least give a little more room for each classes.

 

question for Ed: does APR GTC-200 wing with APR 2.5" riser count as level 1 or level 2 wing ?

 

owen, can you share some info of your car weight?

total weight with all fluids and full tank, but no driver?

 

I personally have the GTC-200 with 2.5" risers and counted it as a level 2 wing.

I think that makes sense...it does provide a decent amount of downforce from what I've been able to tell. I've never driven in a car with say a CR wing, but from the looks of it...I don't think it would be considered an equivalent. Agreed?

 

Once I got my car weight again i will let you know the #

How was yesterdays Buttonwillow?

 

tough day for everyone, foggy and muddy, no one had enough track time.

 

+1

I think William gave up a chance at a podium finish by letting me use his Giant GTC200 wing . I did exactly one hot lap with it, went 4.5sec faster and won street (Thanks!). Traffic and other guys getting stuck in the mud delayed things so he never really got a clean lap for the rest of the day.

 

if u borrowed his wing...i shoulda borrowed his front end

 

it is a gigantic 67" gtc300 wing. Not small GTC200 wing. Emilio sells both.

Don't think I ever had the chance as a s2k noobie.
