Re: Spec Racer Ford for TT4 rules questions

I think you're going to have more success on a NASA forum than here. I don't imagine many (or any) of the folks on this forum have looked into this.

Looking at the "non-production" rules for TT4, I see that the gen1 and gen2 spec racer ford prototypes are approved for TT4, but the gen3 cars are only approved for TT3 or higher. For both, no mention of "additional aero mods" is made in the rules, unlike some of the other non-production vehicles listed.
I have a few questions.
1. If using a gen2 car, taking the 0.6 model specific mod factor, am I able to also take the "OEM aero" mod factor if I make no aero changes? If I don't take the oem aero factor, can I make additional aero mods to the car (wing, splitter)?
2. May I use any engine / engine mods in order to hit my power target, or do I have to use an original, unmodified gen2 SRF motor?
3. If "yes" to #2 above, then why do the gen2 and gen3 cars have different classifications? The only real difference is the engine. Chassis/aero are identical.
4. Can additional tubing be welded into the space frame of the car? This would serve multiple purposes (safety increase, stiffness increase, weight increase).
please help
I did not find the right solution from the internet.
