Default Evo IX in BS ans BSP?

Does any one kow why the Evo IX is in BS and BSP, if the previous Evo used to be in AS and ASP?

Or is there any kind of mod that will change it to BS/BSP?

The current and past EVO's were/are in AS and BSP. The new Evo IX is also in AS and BSP. Sounds like you got bad info on both cars.

Yep, I'm still kind of confused. Why would a same car be in to classes?

Does it have to be on the modifications (I mean between AS and BS)?

i do not think you understand the scca classing system.

the evo is in as and bsp. AS stands for A Stock. BSP stands for B street prepared.

a stock evo (can have FSB, shocks, cat back exhaust, race tires) is in AS, while an evo with more modifications as this, such as more boost, coilovers, different size wheels than stock, is moved into BSP.

SP is a class for cars with mods on it. then it moves into SM if it is heavily modified, or has a body kit, etc.

read the rules on the SCCA website.

I tried reading the handbook, but the only thing I could find realted to stock Evos, was that they were in A stock class, no Evos in B stock class.

I do understand they can be transfered to a prepared class. But the only car classification I know is the one for the 350z. No mods B stock, some mods B stock prepared, more mods SM, etc...

So Evos can be placed in either A stock or B stock prepared, there are no Evos in A stock prepared or B stock?

I am sort of new to autoX so, sorry for the dumb questions and if it seems the informations is being hard for me to understand.

See the csurrent SCCA rule book:
http://scca.org/_FileLibrary/File/2006_solo_rules.pdf

Section 13 for Stock Rules

Section 15 for Street Prepared rules

Appendix A for Car Classifications, pg 161 for cars in BSP.

The Evo9 is not currently listed but the Evo 8 is there. Note; this is the class structure for 2006, it may change in 2007.

Also, The NOC rule may apply.

So what got me confused I guess, is the fact that for the 350z the stock class is BS and the prepared class was BSP. I thought the same rule applied to all other vehicles. For instance, if the Evo stock is AS the prepared class was ASP.

There's no direct relation between moving from AS to ASP or BS to BSP, etc. The classing is based on putting you with comparable cars. I think that's the source of your confusion.

Depending on modifications, some cars become more capable than others. i.e.: the Z benefits greatly from wider wheels and better rubber. In contrast; the Yokohama Advan 048's that come stock on an Evo are nearly wet weather competition tires.
