RX8 in FP

July Fastrack: RX8 added to FP approved list...yawn...interesting concept.

What might be truly interesting: Solstice GXP also goes to FP.

EDIT: nevermind, who am I kidding? Solo can't find that many people willing to cut up rusty, $1500 Z cars, what makes me think that anyone would build a newer car for FP? Although, when Chris *** ran the Tri Point BMW in FP, that was something to see...very, very cool.

starting off with a $1500 worn out piece of junk is likely to cost more in the end

unfortunately FP still has the archaic 16" dia/10" width wheel weight penalties in place

Getting rid of the 16"/10" weight penalty is currently out for member comment...and you have to imagine it will fly. Kinda changes things, huh?

Which he even says in his thread is under the minimum weight for the class.

yep, but apparently not by much. makes me wonder what an RX-8 could get down to, and what the minumum weight would be.
