Request to combine spec lines

#30226 from Angelica Sprehe · No action required · Minutes (2021-05 Fastrack)

Thank you for your letter. Large amounts of data have been collected on the 86, BRZ, FRS platforms in T4. We have been careful
to separate the first and second generations to account for the advantages of the newer car. As displayed on the 2020 Runoffs
podium, the 2 spec lines are very close. Combining the spec lines would just create a situation where all of the 2013-2016 cars
would need to go out and update to remain competitive. We also don't want T4 competitors to be choosing final drive ratios
per track. The goal in T4 is to keep it simple.
As for the wheels- The data shows that the cars are very competitive on 7" wheels. Also, 7 inches is within the 225 tire's
recommended rim width range.
