Is this being televised?
Definitely interested to see how Gresham Wagner does going from MX-5 to the GR86. |

I imagine a lot people would really get into this series if they only knew. I remember when I first heard about it becoming a thing the amount of information available was scant. |

It's going to be a stout series, lots of established/known drivers from other series, and lots of new talent.
Expect to hear O'Connell, Bocuse, Clemons, DaSilva, Gonzalez, Piscitelli & Pombo quite a bit along with Wagner. I'm pumped for the Garcia brothers, Alex & Michael. They are local to me and have participated in HPDE for many years. Hope their transition to momentum cars is successful! I know they've been working hard testing in Miata's! And Zotz Racing will get them the support they need.

Based on my initial reading the series was going to allow $20k worth of additional options over base on the GR86 Cup, is that the case?
Could someone link or list the spec sheet? I'd love to have a point of reference. |

It's a spec series, so I would think so.

They have a few options on spring rates, but limited to what the series specced. All pretty darn soft.
Not sure about brake.pads.
