Care to take a stab at explaining the structure in terms that aren't open to interpretation then (though you can leave out the drivetrain sub-classes as even I can work that bit out)? And maybe at what stage an "open modifications" car class becomes a "serious modifications" class and then morphs into an "extreme modifications" class?

There you go, you learn something new every day. Be intrigued to know where the Tubbys CoG sits in relation to the NA.

However the more I think about it, the more I can't picture how the Tubby's weight distribution has swung forward, given the extra weight of the engine.

Possibly... I know the turbo chimney sits a long way forward, but then doesn't the exhaust manifold also sit at the front, rather than the back to front nature of the NA.
