As has been stated thousands of times and I haven't seen anyone dissagree, it is 90% driver. Spec racing isn't about who has the biggest pocketbook and IMHO separates the men from the boys.

The tC is light, has a strong engine (note I didn't say powerfull), rigid, solid construction, and handles well for an entry-level sport coupe in the hands of a good driver. Due to it being an entry-level sport coupe they are also cheap. All good qualities for a spec, track car. Am I wrong?

Did you even read my other posts in this thread? I'm not even going to respond.

P.S. I wouldn't consider any cars over 3,000 pounds to be "light", sorry.
