    Can’t change the steering rack without getting thrown in an even more competitive class...

      What happens? You swap the steering rack in your nearly stock E30 and wind up in a modified class against cars that have a clean E30 worth of modifications on them and can run with the big boys on a track?

        One guy I follow on IG, Hanson Motorsport, I think, has an LS e30 he runs in Utah. Local level events, he appears to do well.

        I never cared much about the class, as long as I felt like I was getting faster/better throughout the days. I was in STX for SCCA stuff with a Z3 rack, may have been incorrect idk haha. I think a lightly modded e30 fits in there well at least locally. I was always a second or two off the pace but I put that down as having the "e" rear end and not the 'i" gearing. Now with the ITBs I'm bumped up to DSP I believe. Hopefully I can make it to another event this year.

          basically with each mod to have a better a/x car you move into a class that you are even more outclassed.

            I've never given a shit about classing with the e30, I just do what I want to do and let the classing land where it wants.

            If you want to win some sort of autox class, you should just buy a different car that would be competitive in whatever class you want.

                              Crazy how life gets in the way and tanks your motivation to do something sometimes. My wagon is barely any further along than it was at my last update in its thread, but I have a goal in sight; road trip up to the smokies and hitting the driving roads in the area. I just hope the weather holds out because my rear tires are not well suited for anything lower than the 50s, not that I plan on pushing the car on those roads, just spirited driving. Goal; at least one wagon tail of the dragon pic in the thread before December.

                                lol NEVER

                                If I had to choose between a boosted miata or an NA- I would go with NA

                                Varg, I definitely feel that at times... The older I get, the more shit I have to deal w and the less time I have to work on my own projects...

                                Very jealous that you'll be on that road.. def a goal of mine to hit that in the e30
