Re: MAPerformance 2011 Sport Compact Proving Grounds @ BIR – Event Details
I've got a question about the tech for the drag classes.
I'd like to compete in the Stock Appearing Class, but I'm not sure how strict the classification will be. Right now, my DSM has a full interior, floor mats and and all, however I am missing a few pieces of truck plastics. Do you think this would slide, or do I need to track down the 2lbs of brittle old plastic panels and put them in?
Also by stock framed turbo, since the car came with a TDo5h turbo, any variety of the same would be legit?
Thanks!

Man I hope the weather is good myself. Nothing like tenting it in the rain.

No worries on the plastic pieces. As far as the turbo, it must have a Mitsu Flange.

Any new mods you're bringing to the table? Don't worry about mentioning if you plan to sandbag lol.

So looking through the drag classes, would say a DSM with a 67mm on it have to race in Outlaw?

Prepped STX WRX > unprepped SM Evo on street tires when it comes to PAX. I could maybe bring the STX WRX that I drove at nationals last year.

23 out of 54, 3rd fastest WRX. First time at the big show, all I wanted was to finish in the top half and I did that. And beat the car owner.
Effing BMWs... If you can't beat 'em, join 'em is what they say.

Re: MAPerformance 2011 Sport Compact Proving Grounds @ BIR – Event Details
To be stock appearing will I need to swap back to the stock evo cast manifold or can I run the tubular mitsu flanged manny with my FP Black?
I just convinced a customer of mine to extend their project out a week so I can take time off and make this event.

Re: MAPerformance 2011 Sport Compact Proving Grounds @ BIR – Event Details
I'm tuned and ready to roll. I'm even bringing my father along...that'll be interesting.
Anyone know if passengers are allowed on the road course? I'd like to give a couple people a ride, including Dad. I tried emailing Andy but no response.
