ITS RX7 - Street Prepared C
A well-prepped ITS RX7 would be a good car in SPC imo.

The ITS RX7s are 12Bs, which are SPB cars.
Off the top of my head, the only issue I can think of is a fuel cell. If the car has a fuel cell and it is within the passenger compartment, you'll have to modify the setup to make it legal in SP.
Best of luck with the car, and be sure to read through the COM rulebook carefully!

SPB RX7
.. and an ITS RX7 is NOT competitive in SPB. Spoken as one who raced the first Greased Shadow, an 86 RX7 with a Speedsource bridge ported 11,000 rpm motor very successfully until the Clearys boosted their Eclipse to 50(?) psi and blew me away.

But maybe COM should buy it so the chief instructor can take the students out in it to show them the line....

Mazda made 12A's, 13B's and 20B's. The ITS cars are 13B's, not 12B's...
SCCA ITS track records we hold in RX-7's:
Lime Rock - 1:00.8
NHIS - 1:14.1 South Oval
NHIS - 1:19.8 Chicane-Chicane
WGI Long - 2:14.1 With loop
Pocono - 1:49.1
The RX-7's can be real fast and real fun and real reliable when built right. Have fun!!!

I know you "older" guys are aware of this, but perhaps not some of the 20-30 something bunch. Back in and around 1970, the instructor would load 4 or 5 students into someones car and drive the line for a few laps. You were then allowed to go trash your car! How times have changed!

I ran with CART about 4 years ago, and had that '70's experience.
Sorry about the 12A / 13B brain-fade. Might be a sign that I'm a bit low on vitamin 12-B!
