From this thread and the CRB preliminary minutes:

Based on the extra weight of the new spec FF tires, it appears likely that the minimum weight for Kent/Fit cars will go to 1110 from 1100. For CM cars, spec tires don't apply and it appears that we will still be able to get Hoosier or Avon bias slicks. I took a quick look at the Solo rules and I didn't see an exception to the GCR weights for FF cars, so that means that CM FF cars will also go to 1110 unless an exception to the GCR is added to the Solo rules.
So it leads me to wonder if we should adopt the new weight (i.e. do nothing) or request that the CM rules be modified to add a weight exception for FF cars to keep them at the current #1100 for Kent/Fit cars and 1050 for Cortina cars?
Full disclosure, I have a bunch of ballast to get to 1100 so this matters to me, I know plenty of folks are above minimum because they can't get there. Theoretically, this will make the FF cars that are currently at weight 10 lbs slower (ummm, not much) while the Solo V's stay the same. Yeah, it's a pretty small impact, but....
I guess I'd like to see our current weights stay the same.
