I fixed a couple of things on the chart.
1. World GT is still No boost
2. I added a link to the approved motors list for each class that specifies a motor.
3. World GT will have handout tires
4. We will be checking width for World GT.

I need to double check the ride height for the World GT classes before posting it.

Geez...I must have something against the World GT classes, sorry about that.

We will be checking rear wings this year which is just like last year. The wing must be below the roof line of the car. It is a pretty simple test with a level.

Is there anything else that I missed that you have a question about?

Kraig,

Thanks for further clarifying the World GT rules.

For the past IIC events, both World GT classes shared the same ride heights and widths of 4 mm and 205 mm respectively.

Cheers!

Bill

Kraig,

Are there any acceptable option parts for approved motors, like ceramic bearings, vented end bells and/or tuning rotors, or do they need to be as they came from the factory? I am wondering about Novak motors but I'm sure other companies have option parts for their motors as well. Please advise.

Thank you

I am putting things together to make this my first ever trip to IIC and I have a couple minor questions:

In World GT 13.5, when you determine a handout tire I assume we have to run that exact brand/compound throughout the event. Are we allowed to bring a few sets with us or do we need to purchase our additional sets at the event for control purposes?

Next, I had a quick body question. To my knowledge the Parma DB-9 WGT is a legal class body correct?

Thanks guys...

If I remember correctly, there was a maximum final drive ratio limit for the spec grand touring class. The web site doesn't list this, or at least I didn't see it. Can somebody tell me what it was last year so that I can set up my car for practicing with?

thanks.

Yes you have to run World GT handout tyres. These are marked up when you get them and for runs that count (qually and final) you have to run those. Tech is before you run so it will be checked.

You can take sets and run them in practice. In my experience the control tyre will last a long time so one set should do you

Yes the Parma is legal. My advice is to take and run the Sophia or Gianna. The latter is my current favourite.

Take it from me you will have a ball running World GT at the IIC

You can only use tires purchased at the event. One set is included with your registration fee, additional ones can be purchased.

Last I heard the DB9 is still legal, but the Sophia is still the body of choice by most. The new Gianna PF body is a good choice as well (better than the DB9, I would say.)

These options have all been legal in years past...

Thanks for the info guys.. I dig the looks of the DB-9, but I will get a Gianna and try it out.

Btw, what sauce or sauces are we allowed to use?

Thanks for your patience with this IIC newb....
