Bio: The Rookie version of the Pontiac Solstice, this car teaches rookie drivers how to handle the real car. With the same 2.0 liter Ecotec and 177 horsepower engine as its non-rookie counterpart, the road-going Solstice is truly quite a beginners dream choice. With 0-60 acceleration time of just under 8 seconds and weight of just under 3000 lbs, it can still be an iRacer rookie car choice when given the proper tools and the proper learning to deal with the car. It teaches young iRacers how to handle road course vehicles on the asphalt and teaches them how to reach maximum grip and how to keep the car on the track.
