Please correct me where I am wrong but, according to the preamble and the new rules in 15.12, wouldn't that mean you would go into BSPLP where you can run r compounds and external reservoir shocks to your hearts content? I feel like I must be missing something here because it sounds to me like in the limited prep can run the new "street" set up which now allows changing both sway bars, adds camber adjustment and then keeps everything you already have (r compounds and external reservoir shocks).

If anything the extra camber up front might help s2000's no?

Well I'm not gonna let any of this dampen my spirits. Flex fuel sensor ordered, I'll be tuned for Ethanol before the NJ Pro.

I absolutely could run SP/LP, but could I be competitive, nope. Do I want to throw a ton of parts at my street car, nope. I'd likely run "street" if I could keep the canisters, but that one insignificant thing (remotes) could keep me out. Thats the opposite of what the SEB wants to accomplish.

I can't wait to see what you guys can do in BSP. I've been following the development closely and I hate to hear that some of these builds may be put on hold because of all of this. But I do understand it.

Went ahead and put the new Clutch and Flywheel in. What a pain! I should have dropped the entire subframe instead of giving it the 3" drop recommended in the DIY section. I was amazed at how heavy the OEM flywheel was and the abuse the OEM setup puts on the disk. Took about 6 hours with breaks. I will not do this again without a lift and proper tools!

Got an update on my manifold, welds are completed and should be here soon. I will update the facebook/photobucket page when I get time.

Who is going to stay in BSP. Mike seems to be out, Sacha and Greg in. Is everyone else still in? Steve, Robert, Jason?
