that came to 40 points by my tally...? You'll get dinged +1 for 245s (vs 235 from your base class - your "tire width" is always tied to your base class). Easy one to forget 203.9whp max if you're going to weigh 2825lbs on the nose and run 245s or smaller to stay within the adjusted hp/weight cap

I'd HIGHLY recommend getting some reclass stuff done, get the weight figured out and ask for what max power level you can have for a base class that suits the rest of your build (remember, once reclassed by hp:weight, you no longer take weight reduction or power modification points - plus your "base tire width" may change, giving you extra to play with). Easiest way to show you this is as follows

Lets say you actually weigh in at 2900lbs and dyno at 195whp or something (this HAS to come from the national guy though) and it gets reclassed to TTD (instead of TTE**). With no other changes to your modification setup you go from +1 over maxed out for TTD to 4 points to spend before maxing out in TTD. Thats the difference between 2nd tier R-comps & Top Tier R-comps... (and still 1 point to spend actually...)
