Has anyone tried to approach a sanctioning body about getting a class for the 818, either a gentleman group or an all out comp series. I am getting it for a track day car, but at 65 I still want to compete!

Wayne,
NASA has classes ST1-3 and SCCA has some regional catch all classes that the 818 can fit. I think as more of us get our cars on track we can create options. I like you 60+ and still want to compete.

New classes will compete under the rules submitted and approved at the Fall Meeting and maintained by the Race Steward. Protesting will be allowed. Drivers running in new classes under consideration will earn Championship points but will receive year-end awards only if the new class entries average 2.5 for an entire season. New classes achieving a 2.5 entry average for the season will automatically become sanctioned the following year. New classes not achieving a 2.5 entry average within 2 seasons will be required to repeat the above process to remain under consideration
I doubt there will ever be a Spec 818 class. The NASA ST rules are the way to go for the 818 in most of the country. In our Pacific NW ICSCC conference we have an ST class but unlike the NASA ST, we don't allow tube frame cars. We could amend the ST rules to allow tube frame cars, or we could create an 818 class that uses the NASA ST style rules. The key to both is the HP/WT rule. There is no other way to create a fair racing class with turbocharged cars than a HP/WT rule. Unless you want to go unlimited like NASA SU or ICSCC SPM-SPO.
stupid question how do you prove the hp?Quote:
