    CMC Weight reduction

    I propose that all of the weights listed on Table #4 be reduced by 110 pounds each.

    110? Kind of arbitrary...why not 126? :wink:

    Not really, 3360 - 110 = 3250

    Minimum weights:
    Table #1 - 3150
    Tables #2 & #3 - 3200
    Table #4 - 3250

    Imagine how much horsepower you would have then! You had better stay with the lower horsepower engine.

    i'm already 3250 post race at 230 hp (216 really). if i go to the LS1, its allowed 280 hp and you want it to be 3250? it would be a rocket!
    keep hoping.

    A rocket? Do rockets have that much wheel spin?

    Just a guess here, but, you seem to have the mind-set that CMC and CMC2 should be combined in the near future. I guess I have different motives. :twisted:
