All three rotors of it's tube framed self!

Steve, go count your wheels and tires, and the "Stuff" that makes your current effort tick.
Now go replicate that for a Lexus (you're nuts) or an RX-8. Do the math.
Now, remember the rule, "buy, don't build",
Then apply the corollary, "If you must build, don't be the inventor".

I see you breaking every one of those. Do you really want to go backwards competitively, while spending double and triple what you're used to??

If we could have kept all 3 rotors happy on both cars we would have been 1-2. That was a heart breaker for us on the 69 car. Just a freak failure.

Most of the work has been done on the RX8 with our Grand Am cars. Most of the suspension parts Speedsource made are available from Mazdaspeed. The wheels for the 8 are not much worse than the Volks on the ITS car because there are actually cheaper, lighter options available. Most tuners just piss the motor off and loose power because short of a good exhaust and intake there is not much to do. All things compared it is a pretty reasonable car to build for ITR. Just be aware it is going to be expensive to buy those big tires. Not so easy to cage because it has no B pillar and you really need to understand FEA to get a strong, legal design. In GA we could seam weld and unlimited attachment points, not ITR. Good luck with your decision.
 
LOL Ron! Can't wait to see that spoiled class look. I will bring you a wifebeater T shirt when I get down for some SARRC events :-)
