Back to the subject, since the US racing organization killed off the 235mm class, it would be nice to have an alternative class to the 200mm touring and 1/8th scale classes. Since there are just as many 5-port .12 engines as 3-port .12 engines, it is a shame that you can only run 5-ports at the club level because they are not race legal at sanctioned races. Also, most club tracks are not big enough to utilize the top-end of most 5-ports. Now that Frewer and Protoform have Lola bodies out for 200mm (and a couple of other companies as well), I say lets push for at a bigger level than at local clubs.
Agree!!

I would love to race outlaw in the UK but the support has died off since the BRCA banned 5 ports. I dont see many coming back to it unless the touring class gets too big. We might get a mini series at a club over the summer but thats it
