scca class???????????

holy crap, im so confused now. the last 2 years i raced my probe in sts, and did fairly well. so this winter i bought my 7, an 86 sport w/ 88k miles. figured i can add shocks, springs, sway bars and falken aziens and im basically ready to start out on my new adventure. i was checking the rule book to see exactly what i can do, and dagnabbit i feel stupid. i cant drive the 7 in sts. so what class would i fall under? im so lost now. i dont want to be thrown into a class that im going to get raped in. but i want to be fair too. this is just for solo II events, if that matters.

If you're keeping it stock, E Stock is where you'll be. If you do the mods you mentioned, bumps ya to C Street Prepared.

You're not necessarily going to get raped in either at a local level, though CSP gets pretty hard to keep up in with the better prepared/funded guys (or so it feels).

Check your local rulebook and see how you're classed there as it may be different, too.

You won't get raped in ES unless there's a decent driver in a Miata (1.6) or anybody with a NA MR2...
Or somebody in a 944 or early z car...
oh well...
Check your region's results for last year's events and see which class had the best competition and build for that class.

Nothing special right now. KYB AGX's surrounded by eibach springs. Turbo II anti-sway bars and brakes. Good exhaust system (torquey), simple intake. Couple other weight reduction things and a few special touchs to make it stand out. Will be runnning Falken Azenis for the first few events.

Guaranteed to become more elaborate as the season gets going (first time in CSP, need to feel out the car a little first, as per recommendations).

You could also run SM2, depending on which has more competition locally. Either way they are your competition, whether your in the same column or not
