I ran high 2.15s and reading the rules package I might have to change a couple of things but I am pretty close to the spec. I just feel that series is not set up for an SVT I am pretty well gutted maybe another 100 lbs off the car but that still makes me around 300 to 400lbs heavier than the F2 car. I am far from anywhere near Andrew Gillis as a driver but I don"t think that Andrew alone is 5 to 6 seconds a lap faster than me so it is all about the car. Again SVT owners are not getting a fair shake as car owners, I would love to bring my car out and run some events , but I dont want to be a speed bump (of course you always need a back marker to go around Ha-Ha) Ted I think you have great job in getting the series up and running and you should give yourself a big pat on the back for the work you have done. I was wondering if you have any SVT test data it would be fun to see how my car stacks up. Maybe I will come out and get a drive in one of the spec car to see the diffrence. Again keep the series going we need it as focus driver for it to be a hit .
