[QUOTE="MadStang, post: 493707, member: 10532"] My first suggestion to anyone starting auto-x is read the Rules that SCCA has set forth before asking questions. Generally the rulebook will cover everything and if you have any further questions then I would come back and ask. [url=http://www.scca.org/documents/Solo]http://www.scca.org/documents/Solo[/url] Rules/2008_Solo_Rules_2.pdf Honestly though, driving a stock car will really let you know where your car stands and develop your skills for feeling the car much better. Anybody can have an incredible auto-x suspension but not everybody can utilize it to it's 100% capability. Start with minimal mods and work your way up, it's the way I learned and I'm currently in the Street Modified Class, only because I upgraded my brakes to Brembos... But, I'm racing others drivers whose cars heavily outpower my v6, BUT, I'm running almost nearly identical times. I used to be in Street Touring where I was near the top of the class because most of the cars were in my power range and I was just able to out drive them with ease. So basically as a new comer to auto-x the best mod is tightening the nut in between the steering wheel and the seat :occasion14: [/QUOTE]
