They are mid 9 sec cars, sfwd cars shouldn't be afraid of them.
Makes for cool racing for the fans imo

Thats odd, because at Fontana I had a PRO all motor car and was stuck in OUTLAW...granted I wasnt going to run nowhere near 10s or 11s. My car was 1-piece front end and back-halved with sheet metal. I would have loved to race with SPFWD equivalent cars.

yes, the ruling was brought up and agreed upon 3 years ago. It gives those guys a class to race in plus helps the car count while also providing close, competitive racing.
Last Sunday was the very first time an all motor car even won FWD (only by .1 second) and now racers are already going to complain about it?

We were in FWD and did not mind one bit. Better this than 2 classes with even less cars, or no event at all. We appreciate having a place to race.

It was just me and Reynolds in FIP. He got the win, i red lighted and he had a great run! It was alot of fun and pretty cool to see how it would work out. And now that it's over with i honestly can say it's not that bad. Those car's are super fast and strong as hell off the line but with more work and time my car can be competitive as well as many others on here. We all need a place to race it's not like it was a 7 sec car vs a 11 sec car. Congrats to Clutchmasters team on the great ET's at Capitol aswell.
It was a fun day the turn out was massive for fans and support. We just need to get the racers out now. If the classes where more full it would have been a BIG event. Where are all you racers at!!?
Nick Rissett won FIS in his full street Integra he drove there and back.
Jason C. won AMS in his integra
maybe somebody will post a full link to results. Thanks Cliff for giving us a event to race at. It's sad Capitol closed down just the next day. The track may not be the BEST but it's not terrible if you prepare your car for it. I had no issues but my own fault's. 1 less place to race is a much larger loss period.

I had a 9.58 at 148 in qualifying he ran a 9.2 at 149 to my red light. We both gone faster at other events so I don't see any issue racing them.
The pro car vs a bone stock 175k mile supra at 3600lbs vs a all motor pro car but yet ets are competitive plenty. It actually levels out. If I built the motor removed weight I can drop a second off easy. It's not that bad I like them in the class.

I had a great time also... came all the way down from Mass to get tuned and go testing/racing at this event. Met a lot of cool people... everyone was really nice down there and the FIS class i think had the most racers. i lost in the semi's unfortunately.
