I think we should include all Toyota engines with rear drive.

Might as well make heavy RWD nissans eligible as well....

Not many folks know this, but Fred is only 32. He's got a lot of miles on him.

So long as your runs count for all applicable classes/categories, then this all doesn't matter much.

You do your runs.
You see how you did on the open ladder
You see how you did in the BRZ/FRS group
You see how you did in <some other group you qualify for>
etc...

It becomes more of a set of 'results filters' than some 'exclusive categories'.

You could even add joke classes.
Like "4 persons onboard".

Last year I did a run with over 800lbs of human onboard and it was about 5 seconds off my fastest time of the day!

I nominate Nate and I to be co-founders of the "9000 RPM" class. Any car is allowed, but it will be disqualified from scoring in that class if we don't measure the revs to reach 9000 RPM during the throttle blip at tech.

Haha! Good one Glenn! We'll enjoy a small competitive field until someone brings a tony kart out

Since a big chunk of cars are fr-s/br-z/miata, how about a miata vs Fr-z challenge based on average time. This would encourage the faster drivers to make the newbs faster.


or frs/brz vs miata vs the world.

You guys forget about me and my twin turbos?

Keep looking for a way to class your car so you can be the champion Nate...
