With the runoffs in my backyard next year, I am thinking seriously of finishing the car off in "STO" trim to be eligible for GT2. I originally built the car to be close to STO so that I could sell it to an STO competitor someday...hehe...how did THAT work out!

Of course now, the rules state you can run an STO prepped car in GT2, but I can't find the STO rules anywhere anymore to see where I comply/don't comply. Looking to get in contact with someone who has done this in a Corvette to see where I need work. Any input or contacts would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Look at appendix K in the GCR!somehwere around page 225, nowhere near the GT2 rules.

Thanks! Maybe I should look further in the "table of contents" that is pages long...hehe.

After a quick look, I should be close.

Bodywork Stock tubs and doors with the rest World Challenge bodywork....should be good.

Chassis Stock A Arms and uprights. Penske remote coil overs and T1 style sways....looks good.

Interior Only problem would be the dash. I know STO required a "stock" dash. I also know most Corvette guys just put in the World Challenge "shell" or fake dash. I also heard from some that the dash thing was often over looked and not important. In terms of GT2 I would think a dash would be even less important. Any thoughts?

Engine and Drivetrain Stock LS7 block and intake. There are some internals and other stuff to look at however. The rear is all stock based Rockland Standard Gear stuff...so should be good.

Tires and Wheels Looks unlimited in size and type as long as they fit in bodywork....should be good.

Pondering....

You can actually run drop spindles and change geometry.

Fakey dash should be gine.

Good question Randy. I'd be interested in going this route just to run at the Runoffs if it's not too difficult to make my car fit into STO rules.
