These discussions always make me smile. I think Tony Luna went ahead a created something for everyone not for everyone to recreate. Obviously those in favor will participate and those who are not in favor will not. These are his spec rules and he ask for input from the GT8 community. The viability will be tested at the track with racer turnout not on the net. I personally won't run spec but ill run open. For me supporting another chassis is the ONLY and determining issue. Personally I love the spec motor rule and if the tires are good as long as everyone has to run them I think it's great. Kudos to Reds for offering a solution. In Texas I will run by the rules if the track. If you can get 20 local racers to support a similar set if rules at your track post them and announce it then you have a bonofied spec class. Matter of fact this is and excellent blue print for any local GT club.
