NASA Time Trial classification question

[GT_Roadcourse_Newb]

Hi,

I have a 2016 GTPP with the following mods currently installed:


JLT Intake
Ford Racing Track Handling Pack
Magnaflow exhaust
CF Driveshaft
19x9.5 Wheels/285/35/19 Tires x4
Aftermarket rotors

Would I be TTA by chance or /cringe higher?

Thanks for any insight

They did away with TTA a few years ago. With your chase for horsepower, you are probably out for TT3 as well. I'd guess your horsepower to weight puts you in TT2.

Thanks Brent. I assume you are just under TT2 points?
Do you have a reference of your mods for same?


EDIT:
Im only thinking I will add maybe 40-50 HP? Maybe 20 more if I run e85?

15- Exhaust
5- Throttle body
10 - Intake
10-20 - Tune?

Car may only lose 150 lbs.. I would be impressed if I could get into the 3rd? highest classification with my build! (Im guessing that tt2 is 3rd)

I have no engine mods as stock is almost always the most reliable(and keeps my warranty ). I was also conscious going in to this of what class I wanted the mustang to be in. I make 370rwhp currently. There is a new equation for TT3 so I can add some more hp or drop some more weight, but not much. It is basically 10:1. TT2 is 8:1. My RX7 is a TT2 car. TT2 is much more of an arms race. TT3 will be eventually, it isn't really yet though. At least not in my area.

I figure 3800 lbs with me in it, and dynoed 408 HP. So TT2, but damn I went to my local Nasa event the other day and the TT2 cars look pretty serious..LOL

Speaking of weight...So I was surprised when I came across the scales at 3900 lbs with me in the car this weekend at the NASA impound. Car is a 16 base GT with the only option being the PP with 1/4 tank of gas. I have apex wheels and hoosier tires that save roughly 70 lbs a total. Catback that is supposed to be 30lb lighter. Coilovers are also supposed to be lighter. I did add the wing and splitter. I'm around 200 lbs with full gear on. I was expecting to be around 3800lbs. I'm thinking the scales had to be off by at least 50 lbs.

Yeah, I would love one day to be under 3600 with me in it!
