Please note that the net difference is approx. 12 pounds!

That thing probably goes for hundreds of cars/combo's in the guide..but in your exapmle i dont really follow..The GTO has been granted a lower HP than Stock,still has that,HP has also been changed somewhere along the line(hit or decrease?)It would be 9.37 with the original hp...as in SS...now 9.53 as you stated..but it couldn't have been that when it arrived then..it also only take's a couple of hp(one hit) to bring it up one class if someone desire...and if it's uncompetitive ..well then a letter asking for lowering hp should be sent i guess..so.. not sure what your example is worth in this case..but in some other cases i am well aware what you saying..

p.s. On a personal note i'm still unsure if i think it was´a good move to let the cars go one class up and one down supposed to the old rule "original and one down only" .it created some new games..
