Ok thanks I wasn't sure. The new descriptions aren't as detailed as they used to be. Moving to modified.

Yeah I kinda like the new groups and dislike them. I could modify a lot of parts on a S2K (or anything else) and still be in production, yet something like a CF hood or lowering springs bump you into modified. I know they are trying to keep the number of classes down to a small number, but they are somewhat too general now IMO. You could have intake, header, exhaust, test pipe, wide light wheels, xbraces, wider street tires, etc and still be in production..

The purpose of autox is just to have fun and at the same time learn how to drive your car better. You don't need any mod to run autox. I've seen stock cars with some great driver kicking everyone's butt on the course. Come on out, you will love your car much more after you find out how great it runs.

Just be sure to register before Feb 8th.

You must note if you are bringing a passenger too.

Yes, my car is mostly stock (I have an intake and TP, intake so I can hear the motor with a helmet on). I also autocrossed it completely stock. You'll be fine and you should just concentrate on learning and having fun anyways

Don't worry about doing bad. Just try to improve on your own time, someone elses times don't really matter. There are some autocrossers that are really competitive, but they'll be at the SCCA, etc events, not FAST. This one is more for fun IMO.
