Default Speed GT Cadillac CTS-V's penalized

The SCCA has announced some changes to the cars in Speed GT to help even up the field. However post of these changes penalize the CTS-V, since the SCCA claimed that since it is a new car, they were unprepared for the speed of the CTS-V.

The changes they've dictated are:
- 200lbs of weight added
- Revlimit lowered from 7900rpms to 7000rpms
- Air restrictor changed from 80.5mm to 63.6mm
- Mandatory use of a Tremac gearbox
- No more development on air intakes

The only other cars affected by these rule changes is the BMW M3, which is now allowed to stroke their engine from 3.2L to 3.4L.

Heh, not surprising after they killed every other car in the series! lol
