Very nice. Where can I find out the spec for Pro7? It looks like you can yank a lot more weight out of the car than with ITA. What's your weight minimum?

Good job, I thought you had to have a dash, part of the door panels, and the rear side panels left intact, or maybe I'm confusing Spec7 with Pro7.

The rules, etc...

Good job, I thought you had to have a dash, part of the door panels, and the rear side panels left intact, or maybe I'm confusing Spec7 with Pro7.
The interior can be completely gutted except for the dash pad. Spec7 has to keep most of the interior intact, including carpets & door panels, etc.

Very nice. Where can I find out the spec for Pro7? It looks like you can yank a lot more weight out of the car than with ITA. What's your weight minimum?
Here's a link to the current rules:

Cal Club Pro7 rules

Our minimum weight is 2300 lbs with driver, post-race. I weigh 160 or so in all my gear and still have to carry about 80 lbs of ballast, so the car is under 2000 lbs dry.

All of this info pertains to the Cal Club region of the SCCA. There are other PRO7 regional classes out there with slightly different rules, as well as similar classes like IT7 and Spec7.
