Re: Rules for 2015.... Electric cars and events to drop

I came up with the breakout times by taking the average time for each event over the past 5 years. Some rounding, I suppose.
The problem with coming up with revised breakout times using the same method is that people have been following the breakout time for years, therefore, I would not expect a lot of changes to the average (big change in mode).
That was just the method that I used.
Breakout times too slow or fast? Adjust the numbers without any scientific methodology in a proposal. Doesn't have to be rocket science to propose a different time.
Question on the Miata tires... is it the rim size that came on the car or a rim size that was available?
For example, my 1984 VW Rabbit (non-GTI) came with 13"x5" or rims. I used GTI (14x6) rims instead with no hit as it was a tire that was available for the Rabbit (regardless of trim). Same reason I could take out the 1.7-liter and use the 1.8-liter as the engine was available in the GTI.
