Just to answer, adding lead to a chassis deemed NOT SPEC in order to make minimum weight does not make it legal. Since we're pretty much pioneering this "E" class I believe we are running OPEN since 98% of us are running some type of conversion.

No need to run lead bro. Run it as is. We've got a good thing going. No need for scales, tech inspection etc. Plus, the only way I'm gonna get faster is running with faster people. With the current group of GT8E racers, the only one I know of thats running BOX STOCK is Steve D and I know he could care less as well.

As Raman stated, Currently there is no need for a SPEC/OPEN class. In the future, should the class thrive and grow we may need to adopt rules already in place or make our own. Until then, I'm happy with everyone just showing up and wanting to race these awesome cars.

I can't wait to lay the smack down on your lighter purpose built race car with my buggy conversion. hahahahaha.
