For scca he would be in STF. All those mods are allowed. I dont know what class for NASA. Other then your tires i think you will still be competitive.

Tires are crucial. If you can, pick up a set of 15x7 RPF1s slap on a 195 R1R or StarSpec and have a blast.

Tires are worth more time on track then any other class legal performance mod.

The best way to get faster is seat time. :)

If you choose to replace your wheels go with the 949racing 15x7.5 wheels their a better match for the 195 tires as far as performance goes plus their cheaper.

what 11.4 pounds those are some light wheels. when i finally get the parts in the mail i will start to save up and get a set or rims and tires for track days.

my DR-19 are 15.6 pounds each so over all weight savings 4.2 pound per wheel. that should be noticeable when driving.

I run on 949s, love em. What is everyone's fettish with star specs (yea they are better in the wet... But how often does that situation arise?) ? Rs3s blow those away on a small car in the dry.
