Garrett (GamecockS2k) will definitely be there. With your mods, you can run in either BSP (B-Street Prepared), or SM2 (Street Modified 2-seater).

Hey one more question.. SC Highlander

at first I signed up for BSP novice....
which seems ......... stupid to race against beginners.. ( I believe that you can only race novice if you have never raced before... which I have)
next I went with street tires...
because I am running cheap street tires.. that are almost bald...
I do have another set of new street tires but it seems a waste to put them on just to burn them off.

should I suck it up and just run in BSP with no restrictions.. or not...

There is no way I want to run in your class... because it looks like most everyone there has R compound tires and.. you are running a different gear in the rear...

as far as skill.... I ran with a Z350 a couple of years ago in BS.. He ran R compound and I street tires (Cheap ones again) and I was at most 1.5 sec behind in a 66 sec course.

It would be nice to have some competition but not come in last.... ( I am trying to impress this hot chick I am bringing.. )

any input from anyone is welcomed good or bad......just dont talk about my spelling

TBSP:
The street tire class should have a few pretty good drivers in it, but they'll have as much of a disadvantage as you.

BSP:
The regular BSP class also has a couple good drivers, but they're going to have R-compounds.

SM2:
Highlander's class should be fun, but defintely fast. Although Bryan will likely be on street tires, I think Chuck is registered also, so he'll probably win there with R compounds.

Novice:
Personally, I don't like the novice class in general. For a year-long point race, I understand it. It's a fun way to compete with a large group and have a shot at some trophies your first year. For one event, especially if it's your first in a long time, you'll probably be beat by a good bit of the novices this late in the year. They've been running in that class all year now...

So, I say, go for TBSP and run with the other street tire guys. There's a slight chance I'll end up there still...

Gosh, your spelling sucks, by the way! j/k, it was the overall grammar/lack of capital letters and punctuation that was driving me nuts.

Yea, I'm going to have a hard time catching chuck -- even once I get back on R-comps. I agree with Garrett, though. Your best chance is in BSP or TBSP.
