Well that's a matter of perspective, imo even a new Xray T4 '14 is expensive for that class, but to each his own, I will tell you that VTA has struggled to be a class that gets a weekly turnout, usually only at special events or trophy races, you may want to considered setting up a 17.5 TC. Unless something changes, the D3.5 should be back on the banned list, so that debacle will be over.

The intent of the class is left to one's interpretation - I don't think one of the class's goals is to control overall cost, but to control the number of disparities that arise from the ungoverned use of newer technology. Considering 10 year old cars can compete with the latest and greatest, I think the USVTA rules have proven to be both fair and effective without the need to implement a rule excluding certain cars from participating.

As someone else suggested pick up a touring car for 17.5 TC and call it a day. This is the largest class hands down. If you can, get it together and shake it down at critters.

Ok...after I am done sobbing to myself after Horsham ends... I would like to run some f1 at Jackson. . Especially now that more than a few of us own current cars. I can't/wont do every Saturday . .and would assume the cars will work better once the track rubbers in a bit.
I will keep an eye on the thread for weekends you all want to make this happen. Maybe a special event for f1 when we get closer to tcs would be fun?
