Spec J-Body.
Most importantly it be budget friendly. J-Bodys are cheap & plentiful, so it be accessible . It take place at dirt ovals.
The requirements:
- A Sunfire or Caviler from 1995-2005 (coupe or sedan, no convertible )
- A stock engine (any of the 2.2L - 2.4L, ballast be added to equal out the power differences )
- Automatic or Manual
- A spec tire, I’m thinking a winter tire for traction in the dirt.
- The usual safety stuff (airbags removed, glass removed[ wire screen up front], roll cage, racing harness )
- Gut the interior except the drivers seat.
It be 20 lap heats, with 50 lap mains. I fail to see how this could go wrong.

And now you’ve killed the entire sub-$2000 used car market in Canada. Hope you’re happy with yourself you monster.

I’m legitimately surprised whenever I see one still on the road, or for sale somewhere. They're far less common now than they once were, but they did build a bazillion of them.

I think tht already exists. There’s a tri-oval dirt track near where I used to live that ran a class for j-bodies, ford escorts, non-DOHC neons, non-turbo DSM coupes, and I think one or two other FWD co mpacts called the “Hornet” class. Or maybe “Hornet” was a specific make/model and there was a more open class. Something like that.
I moved before I learned about it but I would totally do it.

I’d like to seem the same idea but with old cargo vans.
A good rollcage would be highly recommend

un registerable j-body can be had for sub-$ 200. I had the same Idea with Chevettes when they were basically free

You’re right, it's just called the "Hornet" class. For obvious reasons. Some RWD are allowed just can't remember which ones.
