What class am I supposed to be running in for scca autocross? I am running a 2056 with cam and carbs. I am running a front bar and monoballs with RA1 rubber. The local club wants me to run in SSM but the car is well outclassed. Previously they put me in SM and I am aware that's not correct but it at least let me be competitive in my group.

Looking at your avatar picture, I'm guessing you're running 225's or wider under those flares?
Technically, FP, EM, or SM would be the proper class for you. Street Prepared allows a ton of stuff, more than what you've got with one exception. You can't go into the motor. The cam and 96 mm jugs are what bump you out of Street Prepared. Chances are, you could talk to the other DSP drivers at the event to ask if they don't mind if you run with them, and they'd be fine. But otherwise, you'll just run with the big-dogs and compare your times with those of DSP. The mods that bump you out of SP are relatively minor, and not going to make your car an overdog in DSP. If the rest of drivers are okay with it, I'd run DSP for a while... -Josh2 QUOTE(Woody @ Nov 13 2011, 04:53 PM)  What class am I supposed to be running in for scca autocross?

However dont think FP would be legal or can you use a 2056 T4 in that class? XP would be option too. Or if your region has OSP you could run there. However SP pepople might take exception to the displacement increase beyond just the internal changes! Monoballs also kick him out of SP to SM. SCCA rules gerally suck for street prepared cars and it wont change anytime soon due to political influences. |
