Yes, but...

Rule Five: Only one FT86CUP enduro at a time.

I'd like to see some events happen outside of California. Like the midwest.

Here are the 2000cc rules we race to, maybe you can find something useful to copy. This series is 7 years running and still going strong. http://www.crc.me/index.php?option=c...=599&Itemid=31

I'd like to start a discussion for 2014, and get feedback from the community.

@robispec: As always, your input is highly valued.

I will delegate myself to moderating the discussion, rather than putting in my opinions.
What were the flaws?

I think there should be some sort of quick inspection during sign up for the competition to verify mods done and classification of each contestant.

A quick look at the tire TW rating, look under the hood and car for any obvious modification from factory or weight reduction besides removing the spare tire and tools and carpets. So on and so forth. Shouldn't take more than a couple of minutes to do per car.

If I'm at the event, I don't mind doing that before and in between my sessions.

What rules are carrying over? Are you looking to start from scratch? What were the deficiencies?

I have no idea what this FT86Cup is, but if there is a Midwest one, I will happily race in it.
