My NASA AIX "outlaw" race car

[99COBRA2881]

Outlaw is an outlaw class on the west coast that runs under their own TT type rules. My car wouldve fit into that class well but Ive since gone to AI. Throw Toyos on and chop some HP and my car= AI car.

So far there is AI, AIX, CMC, CMC2 and the newly created SI Spec Iron class.

I liked it better when there was AI, AIX and CMC. The new spec iron class looks promising and has generated a good deal of interest.

Thank you for the compliment. :beer:

CMC Combined

As Far as NASA is concerned, there only the new Spec Iron (Spec Ford?) and CMC, AI and AIX.

AIX outlaw was created as a "class within a class" to put an upper limit on the AIX mods, and to have a points system to reward faster drivers instead of faster cars.

CMC and CMC2 combined under the CMC2 rules with the CMC name in 2012.

Camaro Mustang Challenge :: View topic - 2012 CMC

CMC drivers and fans
Its been several years that CMC has been running split fields with CMC1 and CMC2 cars. Over this time our drivers have voted their preference with their actions and the fields have overwhelmingly shifted to CMC2. During the first two events of 2011 Texas had a single CMC1 entry and California had only two. Some regions have a higher count of CMC1 cars, but that is only because as a region the drivers decided to all stay in the same class and are either switching "en masse" this year or next year.

Your CMC officials together with NASA National have therefore decided that this year, 2011, will be the last year that the CMC class is split into CMC1 and CMC2. Beginning with the 2012 race season CMC will once again be a single class under the current CMC2 rules package. This will simplify the logistics of timing&scoring as well as grids, enable better awards, and make it easier for those coming into the series to see what they are getting into. It will of course also set us up for bigger fields, something all of us drivers want. Since a current CMC1 car is perfectly legal under CMC2 if there are any remaining cars under that setup in 2012 they will of course be able to run with the group.

This will mark the end of what has been at some times a difficult transition from CMC's original max power of 237hp to the current CMC2 267 that has seen such success and desireability by both our new and existing drivers. Long term CMC will continue with these current rules, thereby ensuring CMC continues to be the lowest cost pony car racing series within NASA.

Blacksheep, we actually have decent CMC fields in MidAtlantic. Nothing to write home about, but often as big as AI.
Autobahn seems to rule here, though.

nasa's ai group of cars just didnt survive the generational change that came with the 2005 mustang. that car was a level ahead of the previous mustang and the discontinued gm cars. camaro and challenger returned to challenge the mustang at retail but neither car can be raced without jumping thru too man hoops.

spec iron is a ford racing spec series. it will replace cmc as the older cars age out and very likely it will do the same with ai. aix has been dead for a long time.
