Fun "IROC" RSR series ? starting in So Cal

[TRE Cup]

With the popularity of vintage and classic racing, a fair number of us here in So Cal have been talking , bought cars, started prepping them for street and track use. So far we have five cars that will be in some of the original IROC colors

Aubergine- Owner JB
Black- Owner CT
White- Owner SA
Jade Green Owner DB
Mexico Blue - Owner TM
Some of these are street registered here in California. Goals are to drive them on fun tours, time trialing, and vintage racing. It would be a blast participating as a group in various events together (Targa California anyone ?). Livery has to be authentic as the originals, run 9 and 11 x 15 with either Avon or Michelin TB tires. Motor spec is open for the time being as everyone has their own idea on what they like there.

Care to join us ? LMK

I hope that this is ok to post. I have a friend who has a very nice IROC clone........95%+ complete project. Many years into it and the owner is currently thinking of selling. If interested, please PM me and i'll connect you with the owner.

Hi Dave,

I'm working on one, going with Pistachio ( color code 137). It's been a while since we've spoken.....many years ago in the POC.

Regards,

Howard Lewis

That is great Howard ! Looking forward to having you join us .
Please share pics and details to this thread
We will do the same with some of the cars we are involved with too

I'm going to retain the sunroof ( it gets hotter than bajeezus in these cars ) , so hopefully I won't get any grief from the hardcore IROC guys. LOL
