Yea, the number of cars that have cage issues is unknown.what would the ITB weight be, theoretically? I figure it would be in the 2600-2650 range, which under the current cage rules is still 1.50/0.095" - it used to be that you'd go to 0.120" wall at (I think) 2500#.
I'd bet wheel sizes and the lack of a need to change classes due to IT7 is the best reason to not reclass the RX7, and the disappearance of 12A parts I keep hearing about mean its days are likely numbered anyhow.
What IS known is that no RX-7 (legal) has ever run at the top of the ITA world. (And I aint talking local, I'm talking the Rucks and Mosers and the Bettencourts of the ITA world). Actually, MOST guys in their RX-7s wouldn't finish ahead of a decent ITB field AS iS. So adding 300 won'y make it better, LOL
