why they don't race NSX's

[Ineed a_NSX]

Does anyone know why they don't race NSX's in gt racing series in America ??

I would say because it would make the other cars look bad. But I am very biased of course!

You will need FR for NASCAR

did you just come from under a rock? Pete Halsmer and PD Cunningham raced them since 1990. They just recently stopped due to rules regulations, costs, and lack of factory support <----HUGE issue etc. Many are still run in grassroots events all of the way up to SCCA.

Yeah, guess i have been.....

They just recently stopped due to rules regulations,

Do you know which rules ?



But i just watched a GT race last weekend. Porshe,vet's,caddy cts,vipers,
no nsx's and i was just thinking maybe

Do you know what the NSX would do to a caddy CTS !!, or a viper on a track

That was true in the late 90's, but not now. I think PD reluctently retired the car not only the first time, but the second time as well.

Well I would think that on shorter track vipers and caddy, would not have a chance, They are nowhere near as nimble as a NSX.

RP, would you like to do the honors?

Guys, the point of rules these days is to equalize unequal cars so they can compete and put on a good show. NSX, Caddy, whatever. Rules can be written to give any one car an edge over another. Most teams today don't care what they run so long as someone gives them the money to run it.

Yeah that makes sense. It's a money thing.

Honors ? Thanks i think i will...
As a matter of fact if i get the chance i would be honored:biggrin: to use the nsx as a car in a fitted series's.

I am will be returning to my shifter kart soon i hope.:biggrin maybe in 2 weeks ) I was forced to take time away from racing my kart
I figure one more year, of karting and i will make the move to cars. Thanks, for the idea.

Nice, it's all about getting the money backing for that.
