If you were to max-prep a Yaris within the Stock rules, I don;t think there are any cars other than a Mini that you'd need to worry about.

Street Touring (ST) is a nice class for us,a nd your setup makes you reasonably-competitive in most clubs. Even if a national-level car is running, you're in the running for 2nd place. My car is not max-prepped, but is pretty good for a DD/autox combo, and I am almost always in the top 5 these days, class-wise. I've been running a second or 2 behind the fastest STS Miatas on 60-second courses so far this season, and ahead of the majority of Miatas and S2K's locally. I'm hoping to compete at the Houston Divisional just to see how I fare. I missed the recent National Tour event here, which would have been a nice comparison, even though I'd have been DFL against those guys. (Andy Hollis, etc.)

What all is allowed on ST?
