Good for GM that the car was allowed to compete, but bad overall for Grand Am to allow the car in with many obvious advantages. I can't wait to read the rules to see how badly they hammer it with restrictors and penalties.
I am sure they will make it fair. Winning with an unfair advantage is what a sanctioning body is designed to eliminate so I would expect that they have limited the LS7 significantly. HOWEVER, seeing that sweetheart in race clothes makes me want it even more.
