Help! What SCCA class am I?

[oh2fly]

DSP works fine with all of those mods and they are legal

[1991 318is]

Which class?

If you are serious about competing, it makes sense to build a car to the rules and not vice-versa. The worst case scenario is to have one or two mods that put you in the next class where a lot of other things are also allowed. A sure way to not be competitive.
Can the body kit and springs and go back to Stock Class or build the car for the first class that allows the bodywork.

Josh,

I wasnt trying to cheat damn it!

I showed up, they put me in DS class so I ran DS class.

I made changes, I went to my second event told them what I had changed and they put me in STS class.

I talked to Carl a kick butt senior instructor and asked him what class he though I should be in because I try very hard to be honest (dang it) and Its hard to understand the friggin rules, and he said I should read up on the STS v STX class and the LSD might put me in STX but not to worry about it for now.

So thats what I did. and I ran STS again last Sat.

I'll go try and re read the difference between STS and STX and if I have to I'll switch classes next time.

Wouldnt want to be on top off the podium with Nick Heidfeld, SPEED Vision cameras after I kicked your butt (LOL) and find out I'm in the wrong class after all.

Eh, maybe I took that the wrong way. I'm just getting really tired of all the protests in autocrossing.

Everything besides the CABs would put you in stock class, I think G-stock is where the m42 cars are still classed, haven't looked in a while. Frankly, it would probably be outclassed anyway, so I doubt people would pay much attention to the CABs.

true i would take a hell of a lot more then the M3 CAB's to be competitive with a Cooper S or an RSXS

[SpunkyE30nOk]

before the suspension sway i ran d stock with just my IE sway bar and poly CAB

[SpunkyE30nOk]

I run dsp with my 325is i have IE stage 3 race springs, bilstein sports, bmp poly CAB, IE 25mm sway bar front, stock rear sway bar, with 14in weaves on kumho tires

I just got this car and have been trying to get it back into shape, what class will I be?

91 318i
Bilstein HD's
Factory LSD option
M3 CAB's
Everything else is stock though I will likely have a MarkD chip by the time next season rolls around.

Yeh I run my 325is in STS
My Hot air intake put me out of DS into ST
I might put it back next time.
The type of LSD goes STS or STX I think
fluid vs disc type? I think we have 2 disc type?? Can be modified to 3 or 4??
I think I'm supposed to be in STX but STS is slower class LOL
Nobody's questioned me yet.
I just did my last Autox with the novice sticker this Sat.

Autocrossing is based on honesty not whether you've been caught or not. Or at least it should be...

As long as no one gives you shit about the body kit your squarely in STX.

[Charlie]

Why not STS? My car seems to fit the rules...

Limited slip diff type. The SCCA really *loves* e30s.

*cough*

Springs aren't allowed in stock classes.
