Bus Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I'm new to VVC. Just got my license in June. If the rules are reviewed please pay close attention to saftey mods on the car which do not improve performance. I am forced to run VVCX because my steering column is not factory stock. My battery has also been relocated but I would be happy to move it if the rules require it. I know there is a slight advantage by moving the battery around but I doubt it makes the car a killer. I purchased the car that way. My car makes 306.9 HP at the rear wheels and weighs 2950 lbs. I'm not much competition in VVCX. I'm hoping if things change and there is no VVC group that GPU is more realistic for low budget cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexaST-1 Posted October 12, 2006 Share Posted October 12, 2006 I am certain the battery relocation and steering column would still be a level 2 car for GPC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mrc24x Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Since we are on the subject....I agree with Bus. I hope there will be a lower class for the low budget/entry level cars (C4's) with little engine work. With the "old" VVC rules I could have spent a lot of money (if I had any) to make 400rwhp and been legal for VVC1. That just seems like it would discourage some new guys on a budget. Anybody know what the lower level HP to Wt's will be for GPC or whatever it's going to be called??? BTW, Nice job Rudy and James at the Championships!! Hope to run with you guys next year. Take care, Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexaST-1 Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 Matt, I will make no mistake when I tell you that a C4 will struggle to be competive in GPC. The base level of performance is Touring One with some upgrades for durability. If you are unwilling to get your C4 to that level then just expect have alot fun. It would be very tough to win if you don't get to that level. But please understand We Want You To Race With Us [/u] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexaST-1 Posted November 21, 2006 Share Posted November 21, 2006 I will send the rule set for GPC to the left coast when I get a good look at the new ST rules for final judgement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AU N EGL Posted November 23, 2006 Share Posted November 23, 2006 Super Touring or GPC ??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
National Staff Greg G. Posted November 23, 2006 National Staff Share Posted November 23, 2006 The short answer is Super Touring in '07. Sorry that I can't explain everything now, but it should all go public soon (again, hopefully within the next week or so). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
