Hey Alvin, the carbon chassis works fine. There is a few that run them without issue. USGT is the only TC class at the hangar urgently FYI. I sent you my setup from Nora. It should be close for the hangar! Looking forward to seeing you out there sometime!

I don't know if I should admit this publicly or not, but I literally took the mod sedan I ran at SeaTac, took the turbo out of the speedo, strapped in a 25.5, and mounted USGT tires and body and raced it at the Hangar, and it was super fast. USGT at the Hangar seems to me to be pretty forgiving.
See you out there soon!

I agree that a carbon chassis should be just fine. I've run carbon on a couple different brands of cars, and I don't think it slowed me down.

i keep typing and i keep deleting
well f it
lets talk about drivers stand etiquette.
i have a favorite position on the drivers stand as do most drivers
i do my best to be the first in line for the drivers stand so i can get "my spot"
last week at NORA i was first in line and a line formed behind me
when it was time to go to the drivers stand a couple of drivers skipped the line
and just went up and took spots. thats some serious bull shit as far as i'm concerned
i did give up my spot to another driver because that driver out qualled me and had more
of a chance to win than i did.
so heres a suggestion, seeing how we use ifmar starts to seed for the main, lets call drivers to
the stand in qualifying order ifmar style.

This is great. I'm having flashbacks and still wondering if anything has ever been resolved on the Tech.
