I need to find $5.

Good seeing everyone last night!

Yeah it was.

This may be random, but how do 1g dsms do on autocross courses? I'll be finding out this summer, just picked up my autox/rallyx beater.

[cmspaz]

I've heard they don't handle all that great for autox without serious suspension work. But you'll have fun no matter how it performs.

However, for rallyx... willing to take on a co-driver?

[Kracka]

With a 1G get a good shock/spring or coilover combo with some stiff aftermarket anti-sway bars and you should do fine.

well, that will take me out of the stock class I assume. I want to stay in it, especially since this is my first year. I'll be doing any allowed modifications though.

[cmspaz]

That's the beauty of MAC. If you want to run in a less competitive class, there's SI (Special Interest), which is a novice class that you can run until you win it, no matter what your setup is.

As for modifications in stock class, the only allowed mods are switching between factory options in the car's trim levels... So for us, pretty much nothing. The only real beneficial thing we can do is an A/C delete.

According to SCCA rules, you can have catback exhausts as long as they aren't too loud. I have just an axleback. I also have slotted rotors, I know those are going to have to go. Otherwise, my car is stock.

Besides that, I'm using this as an excuse to not dump tons of money into this car :) Just gonna keep it as stock and reliable/cheap as possible,

Yep, that's how it all starts...
