Re: TORA US American Iron Carlist and Build Rules
I like the concept of the iron series but a stealth..... along with lexus and no hemi line up makes for a no from me....I'm a Ford guy but dodge deserves more attention.

I'd either have to boost the HP or use power handicaps to fit Mopar in.
And I despise handicaps.
PS... its not my fault nor T10's that Mopar was focused on KCars in the 80s and 90s.

Re: TORA US American Iron Carlist and Build Rules
I stand corrected, but now its all sorted.
The Lexus is the 2006 IS350, not the 03 IS300.

Just one question I have, isn't the Crossfire a two seater in all of its models? All of the other cars seem to be either four seaters or four seaters with stripped rear seats (Cobra Rs) except for that one.

True, for a good reason: very few Mopars fir the power/weight/PI rules, so I granted the Crossfire a waiver.

In addition to the above, I'd like to point out that due to its lack of four seats, the Crossfire is altogether the shortest car available, affording it an advantage via a shorter wheelbase.

If I may proffer suitable replacements, I have found that the Dodge Neon and Shelby Omni meet all of the above requirements with a drivetrain conversion (same as the Stealth), and both seem more appropriate than the Crossfire given the conditions, as they're both four-seaters and more qualified to the competition guidelines, and, further, are Mopar products.
I've taken the liberty of going through the upgrade paths and have confirmed that they're capable of meeting the power, weight, and PI criteria.

As a longtime Neon owner, I have tried every possible build combination on that car in FM4, and no matter what, while it may "fit" the criteria, it is slow.
The Crossfire's short wheelbase may be an advantage, but the car's relative lack of torque offsets that.

NOTICE
I know this is very last minute, but since nobody has picked either Lexus nor either Infinity, and there have been some rather vocal complaints about their existence on the car list, they are being removed.

I was planning on using the SC but wanted to be sure of my car choice, so I was testing each configuration before prematurely announcing a choice. I apologize for this.
