    Who's going to build a NASA Spec3 car in Norcal?

    Because there aren't any other Spec E36 cars west of the Mississippi, I am looking for somewhere else to go! One choice is NASA's Spec3. Let me know if you are building a car for this series as I am looking for a home!

    Thanks for your response!

    Another place to go would be SCCA into ITS or ITR. The San Francisco Region race program is spectacular.

    There are only a few modifications allowed in Spec E36 that are not allowed in IT, so it shouldn't be too hard to get your car IT-legal. You'd have a place to play and competition at every race ... 13 races over 8 weekends at all three of your local tracks each season. Come out and play, we'd love to have you.

    I'll take a look at the IT rules and see if it works.... Thanks for the suggestion!

    Let me know if you need any help. I know the rules inside and out. And if you want to talk about how SCCA races work around here, I'm more than happy to walk you through it, or host you at a race if you like. We're at Laguna Oct 3-5, and Thunderhill Oct 24-26.

    Drop me a line (josh at godoggoracing.org) if you want to talk about it.

    I have a chassis that I was holding for either BMWCCA SpecE36 or Spec3 with NASA.

    It's amazing how many good E36 donors are out there now. In fact, it's much more difficult (in the Mid-Atlantic) to find a good Spec-E30 donor. Beause of this, I think that Spec E36 and Spec 3 will be the next hot spec series. I beleive RRT already has a few customers lined up!

    Maybe you're just ahead of your time I know where you can find a slightly used IP car.

    Good luck with it and keep us informed of your ventures.

    I'd like to do HPDEs at least. We'll see. If things work out maybe I'll get smart and buy someone else's car at .20 on the dollar

    I feel really badly for you going to all the work only to find no competition out here. The CR guys are a special bunch. If you end up in SCCA or NASA I hope you find the same.
