Hiya there, I would have appreciated it if you contacted myself or @Leonardo9613 before using the ATCC name for a competition seeing as we are the ones who’ve run competitions with that name in the past.
For the sake of lore, a lot of the 2.5m plus 1990-2005 bodies would not have come with a 2l or smaller engines.
Maybe better to limit to family sedans and hot hatches (or the coupe version of those family sedans), or any other formulation that would rule out the pure sports cars with typically larger engines (the racing versions of which would run in GT classes).
Also, in the rebooted ATCC thread (which used the Kee engine version), the rules stated that a high-flow catalytic converter was mandatory for all entries; there’s no reason why it should not be the case here. And that earlier competition allowed the use of VVT/VVL. So it might not be right to ban its use here either. I am, however, in favor of the use of normally aspirated engines being mandatory for this challenge of yours.
