Question AutoX Class question

If I add these to my Stock G35, would I run SCCA STX or BSP Class?

I think these replacement A-arms would do wonders for handling..



What do you think?

The camber adjustment would be great, and depending upon what else you do to it, will move you into STX. Just remember that there are other limitations to staying in STX, such as tire size and type. If you change the tires to R compound for instance, you move into BSP. In my area there are some very well prepared BSP cars, and drivers, competing. For an overview of the requirements check out:

I'll planning to use the above arms and Falken RT615 tires and replacing stock shocks with coil overs. Dialing in 1-1.5* of negative camber front and rear. Replace w/ Z-tube and K&N Filter and lastly Hi-Flow Cat with Tanabe Cat-back Exhaust system. All allowed in STX. This should make this car a beast. I used to autoX a BSP Corvette in the day, back in early 80's and then a SuperStock 1985 Corvette in the late 80's & early 90's before taking 10 years off. I'm back and ready to have some fun.

Is that correct? From how I'm reading it, it looks like those are the categories for Solo I, whereas AutoX is classified as Solo II. Or am I just misreading it somehow?
