Richard, That's a pretty interesting challenge. Would you allow one of my Levy Racing FFR's with some of my available off-the-shelf parts we manufacture?
The other thing is, Mike is a very good driver but I prefer to drive myself.
If we can get some of the peticulars nailed down, I will build a car for it.
Gordon,

The point here is "STANDARD" "STOCK" ETC.

We all know that you put together a great piece. But if you use "available off-the-shelf" bits that you manufacture, then it is no longer a "STOCK" FFR. JBL has some off the shelf bits as well that would increase track performance significantly.

If any changes are made to the "STANDARD CHASSIS AS ADVERTISED AND SOLD" then the whole thing becomes an exercise in chassis tuning and special bits. In other words "a real can of worms" and not a true comparison of “STOCK” automobiles.

Also, my point in having one qualified driver who is not associated with any manufacturer is to keep out "RINGERS".

You most certainly qualify as a "RINGER".

Maybe, both you and Mike should drive all of the cars. But then it would become a competition between drivers and would muddy up the results.
