I hear you may picked up another car with a boxer engine. At least that's what I heard before Isaac and Rich went to San Diego.

Registration is done on site. If you want to participate in the morning you should be there around 8am. Otherwise, you need to be there to register before noon to participate in the afternoon. Bring cash or check to pay for registration; it will cost $35 to participate and an extra $15 for a weekend membership for non-SCCA members. As long as your helmet is Snell approved and not older than a Sell 2000 approved helmet, you can use your helmet. Your car will be inspected at the event.

Yes but I would strongly encourage that you drive your car as is. Due to the class system, you can be competitive in anything, or just drive for fun. I wish I had started with a stock car and worked up from there. You will learn a lot.

Like Huck said, just go for it. I'm on stock suspension, stock wheels, and only a catback and I'll be racing.



Okay, I do have some fancy struts, tires, and a swaybar... But still. You should give it a shot.

Thanks for the responses everyone, Yea i figured i might be in stx...i dont think im esp im running my continental dws's lol 540 tread wear commute tires haha. Wonder what run group i should be in? ive been going in the morning everytime i got but recently ive been told i should be running with my correct run group??

As for your other guys thinking of going, just do it lol....Ive run my car at this autox since i was stock. Body roll central, but it has helped me to understand and learn the limits of my car even more so with my upgrades its a great testing group and helps to improve you as a driver also.

STX you can only run up to a 245 width tire, and a 8" wide wheel. Also if you are tuned, you could have an issue if the boost was turned up higher than stock. These are the main ones, but depending on other mods you could be in ESP.

If anyone is really curious about what class their car is in and want to learn what they can do on their own, the current 2013 SCCA Solo Rules can be found here The Sports Car Club of America - Solo

Otherwise, post up and we'll try to help you.
