I sold my old FP road racecar this spring and have been running my 70 914 in DSP in SCCA Solo. I have done well, but we are a small pond. For the first time I tried running in our divisonal SCCA solo series this year. I did ok, but got my ass handed to me a few times. While my car is setup well for DSP I am not willing to take it all the way to the rules max since I also enjoy driving it on the street.

Sooooooo........... I have found a what I think will be my next dedicated AX car. A good 71 roller with fiberglass GT flares installed. I have been looking at the different classes and think that DP might be a good class to run in. Anyone running in DP? What's your thoughts? I don't want to run a /6 so a it must be a /4 class.

I have a couple friends that do......my friends have Miatas. One took 2nd at the Nats, the other took 3rd. The 1.8L beat the 1.6L but is is usually the other way around. A hand grenade 1.7 might do OK locally.....but not in my region.

*On a good day*, Brit beat them in the shitbox.....but not by much. In most cases it was close enough the whoever had the best night's sleep was the winner.
