What I mean is that the car as it sits now is most likely not modified...yet. Popping the hood would likely reveal nothing as I'm sure they have not had time to build the engine up yet.

Damn that car looks good. With TRD supplying the supercharger, looks like they may be getting set to release a kit for the FR-S/GT86.

If Stout Racing is to use the supercharger, according to SCCA World Challenge rules, it has to be a part available to the public. I think that is a good sign that TRD will release a supercharger kit. The car would need some sort of boost to be competitive in that class. Rumor is that Stout Racing is working with TRD to develop and test the supercharger system.

We confirmed that there was no supercharger under the hood. It looks like it is still under development at this time.

Saw this last week:
http://www.imotortimes.com/articles/...ger-slated.htm As I have said in a couple other posts, available to the public does not necessarily mean reasonably priced. Great news nonetheless. |

To watch races streamed live go to http://www.world-challengetv.com/ They play on NBC sports network ~3 weeks-1 month after the race happens during the middle of the day. My friend, Travis Wolcott, races the #30 car (Volkswagen Jetta GLI) in the TC class. He lives in Boulder, CO. He had his first 5 professional races last season (2 weekends), and podiumed in 2 races (1 each weekend)! |
