To All:
So to get to the heart of things,
"A Pro Touring Car, is one that has been modified to improve on the overall performance of it's original design capabilities. These improvements must Focus specifically in the area of it's Road Holding ability in ALL situations. (i.e. Suspension Upgrades)"
Specific Attributes:
-Better handling agility,
-improved Power output
-increased Braking ability
-and enhanced Steering precision
These four areas of enhancement, (Listed Above) are ALL necessary in one form or another, to be considered a true, "Pro Touring", car.
While these attributes are all necessary for this designation, the degree in which these are accomplished is very broad.
A true "Pro Touring" car can range from Minor/Minimum improvements to an all out Road Racing Car, provided that it is still legal to be driven on Public Streets.
Examples of these improvements include:
Minor Improvements can include (Higher performance tires, shocks, urethane bushings, Cold air intake, performance exhaust etc.)
Major Improvements can include (Complete Racing Suspension and Chassis, sway bars, multi adjustable shocks, Rack and Pinion Steering, AeroDynamic improvements, Power Adders, Roll Cages, Sub frame Connectors, Driver Harnesses, Fire extinguishing systems, etc.)
As long as these four basic qualifications have been met, "Pro Touring", can Technically beused to describe your car style or type.
Year, Make or Model, is Unimportant.
Paint Schemes and Colors are Unimportant.
How someone addresses these four necessary improvements is Unimportant.
==============================================
Does this Sum the Subject up Correctly and Thoroughly?
I look forward to your opinions.
Thanks,
