I don't remember the hp on the spec cars, but they weigh around 1300lbs and max out at 135mph. I think the have 1.9 liter ford escort motors in them. I asked one of the instructors a few questions about them and it sounds like they are primarily made of off the shelf ford parts.

This monday the corvette club will be going there. I know a few viper guys that will be going and have the day off but I am not sure if I will go or not. My car won't be able to go, but I could take the blue one I suppose. I will be at another track (MAM) the weekend before the event on the 21st so will possibly only be able to go Oct 5th if I can get the day off work.

That was funny about the lotus guy saying his bald tire caused him to go off. His car had tires meant for the track and more tread than my tires. He was also saying he was going 100 in that turn which was BS. He lost it after the turn.
