SCCA Solo II Classification
From the December issue of FasTrack: After considering member input and SAC recommendations, the SEB has selected the following actions regarding class SS, AS, and BS, and is recommending them to the BOD, effective 1/1/2003: 1. Leave in SS: Mazda RX-7 Turbo ('93+) 2. Move from SS to AS: BMW M Coupe and Roadster ('01+), BMW M3 (E46), and Mercedes SLK32 AMG, and Porsche Boxster S 3. Move from AS to BS: BMW M Coupe and Roadster ('96-'00) These changes are recommended in conjunction with the new classification of the Nissan 350Z in BS, as shown in the Tech Bulletins elsewhere herein. |
I don't really see a problem with the changes unless I am missing something. Do you have any idea if the Z will be elidgable for any of the ST classes? STX?
-Thanks! |
It's not eligible for any of the ST classes because it only has 2 seats.

Doh! Shoulda known that!
Thanks! |
I think the Z has a great shot @ BS
We had an AutoX in OKC on 12-1-02 and there was a S2000, Which dominated BS last year, That came down from KS and he was a regional champ last year. Well he was full race prepped in BS w/ Giant Hoosiers on and I was on street tires. His best time was 32.001 and mine was 32.002 so I think with some sticky tires for next season the Z will dominate BS.:D

Awesome!! That's what I want to hear! :)

Ditto on what OKC-Silverstone-Trac said. Because the car wasn't classed when I got mine I ended up running in A stock. I ran a 43.099 and the S2000 in B stock ran 43.075. Turn the VDC off and new tires then it will come down to the driver.

Well, Jean Kinser of the Evolution school had this to say about the 350Z (BTW, if true about being .3 off Z06 time, then the 350Z may be destined for AS next year)

I find it odd how the RX7 is still in SS... it's completely outclassed...

What was the drivers name in the S2000? A good judge to your performance would be on how that person placed at nationals? If he went? |
