ECR and V8 cars

Sorry about the Nashville date. It has not been opposite the NASA date in the past and I would love to do it. My Parents and Sister and Nieces live in Nashville and could come see me race. But I have a standing paying co driver for anything at Road Atlanta and my racing budget requires I do those events.

ITO is basically old Grand Am GS cars and NASA AI cars. Those cars are competitive amonst each other. My experience with ITE is that there are all kinds of things that fall into that class that come with A LOT more HP
 
Okay, I looked it up. SE Division's ITO *says* it's like ITE in other parts of the country, but in fact it's just a collection of cars built to other series specs (and the ITO rules require that the competitor has a copy of those specs), much more limited than our ITE is. Maybe there are ITE classes out there like this somewhere else, I don't know.

This document doesn't list rules for an ITU.

So to compare lap times with solid ITR/ITS time around here for Grand Am GS:

Lime Rock: 3 seconds faster
Watkins Glen: 9-10 seconds faster

Then others:

VIR: How does a 2:03.7 compare? Yikes!!!
Barber: 1:38.3
 
two points of clarification.

1. The ITO rules are being restructured to lower the max HP and the speed potential in the class. As I mentioned in an earlier post, the current rules are being changed because many of the cars allowed in the current ITO rules are now STO cars.

2. I am already allow to race at VIR. I am allowed to race at Road Atlanta. I am not allowed to race at cmp and roebling and I am not allowed to race for points.
 
For what it's worth, when ITR was introduced, we had to lobby the committee pretty hard to be included. I'm afraid you may have an uphill battle.
