What Class
I run ST which is about the same as STS, but in the Equipe Rapide group STS is 2 seats.
AFE Cold Air Intake TRD Struts and Springs TRD Rear Sway bar TRD SS TRD Exhaust Just got my NST UD pulley Konig 17/17.5 Kumo Exta MX 215/40 Still a bit of push in turns, need stickier tires to real well. Real fun anyway!!! |

The stock Bridgestones are not terrible , they just don't last long .
Here are the rules http://cms.scca.com/documents/Solo_R...Solo_Rules.pdf and just look for your region http://www.scca.org/home.aspx Word to the wise , its better to learn on cheap tires . That way when you actually get sticky tires you will see huge improvements after you learn the handling characteristics of your car . Also I highly recommend a second set of wheel/tires just for autox only . You could probably do double duty (Full season autox and street driving) for a year on stock tires , but you will need new tires next year .

Bump, so did you ever go racing? And BTW, unless your friends drive like doodoo, hondas can't be easily beat by a yaris.

I run ST, which is similar to STS but not two seats. Equipe Rapide has a class list that you can compare to the modifications you make. I believe it is based on the SCCA rules. www.autocross.com/ER I hope this will help as well. Your header mod may move you up a class, not sure.

the TB is the only mod that may move you out of STS.

sounds like they don't. OP, lots of local clubs have variations on the SCCA classing based on the turnout. example: shit tons of Turbo Civics on street tires show up they may enforce a SMS (street tire Street Modified) so the poor civics aren't up against the turbo AWD 285 tire equipped S4s. |
