GT/AA Class War At Indy - Page 2

Higgins and Caro were in the final of SS/BM and Brandon won the whole race last year I believe. Also I thought that you could not put a big block into a FWD conversion GT car? Did they change this rule or was there never one.

Smitty, right now its up in the air. I have the car for sale at 96,000. If its not sold by then Jeff Taylor or someone else might drive it.

That black car is a beast, that was a damn good race last year between those two in the SS/BM finals.
If Jeff gets in that car at Indy I'm calling Vegas to place my bet on him.
Irv your car runs in GT/AA also doesn't it?

Great to see a class regain popularity with a high car count again. Only draw back is the fact so many motors make it unlikely factoring will be easy the first few years they all run. Probably will result in a shift away from the 350 if the FI or 454 are anything special. Nose wt of 454 will probably be the achilles heal if it is factual combination. Class should be fun unless the factoring turns out to be WAY OFF. Good Luck
The class was tremendous when only 454 oval and 454 Rectangular port ran. They were VERY closely factored to even. 7 or 8 great cars and great drivers made it fun..to run in that class.

Limiting combos SUCKS! Brand Rivalry Rules!

Hey Indiana,

Only time will tell !
I just said I bet Bo Kenny is not the fastest AA car.
Indy always brings out the best in us all.
Congratulations on your move to AA
