CLASS RACER FORUM - View Single Post - Lowering the Super Stock GT class weight breaks?

I was always in favor of lower weight breaks in GT. Currently, the top class in GT is GT/A-GT/AA, 8.00-8.49 pounds. Same as SS/E-SS/EA. So no way for a driver to get the higher HP motors into GT without weighing a ton (actually two tons). And not just the modern hi-po factory motors. LS-6 454/450 for example, L-89 S/BA Corvette engine, and others (not to mention a Hemi rated 500). Maybe in the future it will happen, especially considering the factories releasing new, high HP motors on a yearly basis.
