So, whats it been like racing in Grand Am cup?
GAC is a great entry-level Professional Racing Series. The fields are huge and diverse, and the racing is very close and exciting. This season has been good, but some (though I hate to use the term) bad luck has cost us a few podiums, and possibly the Championship. The cars are supposed to be stock. How close are they to the street cars? What kinds of modifications are allowed? The Porsches are reasonably close to stock. All 996 and 997 start as street cars. The interiors are stripped and custom roll cages are welded in. The minimum weight is as high as the street car, so interior removal is more for fire safety than for weight savings. The only legal modifications to increase power are an airbox, ECU re-flash, and exhaust after the stock header. The transmission is stock, except that a better differential can be used. Shocks, springs and sway bars are free, and some of the rubber bushings can be replaced with plastic (no monoballs). The lower control arms and toe links are GT3 parts.
