John,
I deserve to be picked on for such an ill-informed statement, so pick away!
We originally offered this car with ALL the stock items as spares, along with many racing-specific extras (3 complete sets BBS wheels with slicks, choice of 2 tails, etc.) Naturally, the asking price was considerably higher. One would already have had all the necessary parts to switch back and forth - and then some.
On the advice of several knowledgable individuals, including "our own" Wayne Dempsey, we sold the stock stuff and most of the spares separately, primarily to reduce the asking price of the package.
And your point about competitiveness is well taken! This car was built DELIBERATELY for PCA Class G racing. It is still plenty quick in SCCA GT2, but not against a tube-frame chassis with a high-compression motor, WIDE slicks, and a good driver!
It might be a personal preference, but my son and I would far rather run the car in its advanced state of preparedness in either PCA G or SCCA GT2, than to "dumb it down" to comply with other regs. After bringing it along this far in development, where everything works very well, it seems a shame to "go backwards".
