To get around the carb limitations, many people go to Street prepared where
you can use any carb or FI setup that you want. Of course, you then get
into other restrictions.

Subject: [TR] Question about G Prepared Spitfire autocrossing...
OK...Major lurker but seldom poster here looking for some assistance.
>From what I can tell from the SCCA rules, the Spit 1500 is handicapped in G
Prepared Solo II rules in that it can only have a Stromberg 150 or 1-1/2" SU
without a 10% weight penalty (and multiple carbs are forbidden period).
Yeah, I know, the hot ticket would be to go with a Mk. III or Mk. IV that
can have the twin SU's without penalty and are lighter to boot.
However, I picked up a $100 solid '76 1500 today (thanks, Craigslist) and
have started thinking...I miss my old '71 autocrosser and was thinking I
could have some fun.
Is anyone campaigning a 1500 in G-Prepared? Would like to hear from other
Spit owners in G-Prepared, too...
Thanks for any assistance!
