Question for LT1 Firebird racers

Danny Ashley · 02-01-2021, 02:45 PM

The guide says that a 1997 & '98 LT1 Formula with the WS6 Ram Air option falls at 8.41. This make it able to run AA/SA. I have never seen one in that class and was wondering why. Do you think it's because it is difficult to make the minimum weight of 2855 w/ driver or is there something else. Thanks for your input.

Don't see how you could get one that light legally with a driver.

A/SA is pretty easy to get to the top of the class. The harder you want to work the close you can get to the class minimum.

Depends on what day it is Tommy. Some days I itch more than others. LOL!!! The stars would have to align perfectly though.
