Default Re: Toyota Supra in Stock Eliminator (Poll)

I'm amazed at all the bickering back and forth about exact specs of a car that will be bracket racing 99% of the time in Stock Eliminator.

I get that the point is to remain as close to a true stock setup as possible, but evolution of the class isn't necessarily a bad thing if well controlled. The statement "they don't make them like they used to" is very true so why not try to evolve and incorporate old and new ideas to keep the class alive and well.

You used the terminology "if well controlled..." in your response. Is there an example of a "well controlled" runaway HP factor that you know of? I can't think of any.

This car should be in FS. I understand both sides' arguments but think what I think. If it's in the same class as anything I run, so be it, I'll deal accordingly, but I can't think of a single time where a soft factor was corrected quickly.

Jared, I run B/SA as well. I think we'll be OK for a few years, as looking at
the shipping weight and the Factory HP, which they'll discount, it looks
like it might be a D,E,F car. Or if somebody builds one and loses their
mind, it might zip right past "B" all the way to AAA/SA!!

Yeah, and Factory Stock should be in Factory Stock Eliminator or at least S/S at the very minimum.

At least the non-VIN cars should be.
From what I'm understanding, the Toyota has a VIN. In that case it really isn't any worse than a late model Corvette as far as the drivetrain mods go.
