An excellent series. A little bit of a shame they spent so much time concentrating on the pros but with so many cars who they dont know I can see why the Pros and the sons will get the most attention.

Love the "specs"
Some of the specs that caught my eye...
S13.1 Tyre Regulations (a) Only the control tyres listed below are permitted for use in the Series: Front and Rear: Dunlop Direzza 225/40R18 DUNLOP DZ2* 86 Spec S14 FUEL (a) Only the control fuel may be used from the commencement of practice onwards at a Meeting. (b) For the duration of a Meeting, competitors must only use the specified control fuel supplied by the official fuel supplier as detailed below S15 AUTOMOBILE MARKINGS (c) Each competitor is not permitted to display the signage of an automobile manufacturer other than TOYOTA on an automobile without the prior written approval of the CA. T6 ENGINE T6.1 General (a) Each engine and its components must remain identical in all respects to the original production engine, as supplied by the automobile manufacturer and modified as detailed in the relevant CAMS Recognition Document T6.2 Electronic Engine Control Unit (ECU) (a) With the exception of any software or firmware owned and installed exclusively by the CM, the ECU and all associated wiring must remain unmodified unless otherwise approved in writing by the TC or TM. (b) All sensor inputs and outputs to the ECU must be connected and operational at all times. (c) At any time during a Meeting the TM may remove the ECU from an automobile and replace it with an ECU owned by the CM. This is not subject to protest or appeal. T8.3 Ground Clearance (a) The minimum ride height of the ready-to-drive automobile (with the driver in the automobile and tyres at 1.8bar +/- 0.1 bar air pressure) must not be less than the specified dimension, as measured at the specified measuring points, at any time during the Meeting. (b) At all times during a Meeting, the ride height must comply with the following: - The front chassis must be a minimum of 140mm - The rear chassis must be a minimum of 280mm. T8.4 Camber (a) The maximum negative camber permitted for each front wheel is 4° degrees. (b) The maximum negative camber permitted for each rear wheel is 2.2° degrees. T15 WEIGHT (a) Each automobile must achieve a minimum weight of 1200kg (2645.547 lbs) This weight shall consist of the automobile only, inclusive of all liquids in any OEM tanks which are part of the automobile. Kind of reminds me of the old IROC series... racing identically (for the most part) cars cars so that the race is more about the driver than the rig... Would be great to see this expand to the States.
