Request to Remove Aero from Spec Lines
#34346 from David Sanders · No action required · Minutes (2023-12 Fastrack)
Thank you for your letter. You are correct. Aero items are not normally an item that is allowed in Touring 2. The Porsches in
question were given those allowances over a decade ago. In the intervening time, the balance of power has been established
with those allowances. If those aero allowances allowed the car to corner too well, it was likely reflected in the car's race
weight.
Completely banning aero in T2 creates difficulty for members that already have it. What's more important, allowing aero on a
case-by-case basis lets us class spec cars and purpose-built cars, which the class sorely needs. Very few late model cars are
entering the class, unless they are built at the factory. We need to be willing to accommodate cars like the M240iR, the Spec
Corvette, the Mustang Darkhorse and others. Otherwise, the average age of the cars in the class will soon exceed 20 years. We

just need to ensure that the balance of power in T2 is maintained.
