GRM put out an AR1 / RR / RC1 test today, might be worth a look if you've got a subscription

I get what you're saying, in my mind the move from JRZ to Xida would (hopefully) be lateral financially, a bit less weight, less to deal with being a 1 way, and a benefit in terms of the experience 949/SuperMiata brings to the table.

The car for sure wouldn't be competitive nationally, but I think I'd be able to run free or at least subsidized tires regionally, which is about as much as I can ask for.

I really think you went the right way with your plan, it'll be a multi class / organization weapon. I probably should have considered the LS route, haha.
