That looks like a lot more thought was put into it than a certain 'who will win' article writer,
who picks people that didn't run enought to qualify,
and people that didn't enter either.............

and for a follow up, heres a list of what I know/remember in who is in what
so the wagering can continue,
maybe based on this discussion, Vegas will release odds soon,

Of course it's going to rain/and or hail again, about 2:45pm, so your list will get scrambled up John,.....

Very diverse entry list:

not official, just what I remember/know, I'll update your info if you post corrections or additions.

Kautz's car is a work of art. The complete rebuild/redesign is impressive. But... what may make him more competitive will be his own complete rebuild/redesign. He has really gotten serious with the proper diet and insane workout program. He is fitter than he has been in years.

Reid should be strong, proving you don't need a new chassis. Cooper will be somewhere up front. And, i never count out Scotty's Citation package.

I think the small tyres and Kent combo still has an edge at Road America.

I'm really surprised no one has rented a Spectrum from the Capes...

[Mike Kolthoff]

Hopefully a Fresh Loyning. Was on the dyno on Friday.
Pro tires Normal sizes like nature intended it to be.

Is the Spectrum SCCA homologated?

[Purple Frog]

I believe it is. Borland had to widen the footbox to make it so. Both Cape cars have that mod.

Marc,

Russ always runs Goodyears. Skinnies.
I am pretty sure Randy is on big Hoosiers.
Jamie - big Hoosiers.
I think Jeff B has been running skinnies.

I think. ;p

See you soon,
Allen

[Scotty Segers]

Randy Acock 1998 FC converted to FF Big Hooisers and Loyning Kent
Wes Cunningham ex Porter DB6 Honda on big Hoosiers

I believe they would have to run different sidepods then the cars run for the Pro Series to be legal in SCCA.

Steve, you are talking about the Mygales, i was talking about the Spectrums.

[Steve Bamford]

Steve, you are talking about the Mygales, i was talking about the Spectrums.

I know the Mygales have the issues, I thought the Spectrums had the same Euro spec sidepods on them. There were posts here on Apexspeed back to VIR surrounding them & the Mygales that is why I said I believe they would need to run a different sidepod.
