If any of you run autocross what class do you run? I am in stop but I think I need to be in rtr. Just seeing where everyone else is.

Thanks

What mods are you running?

 

[twort]

Supercar coilovers and subframe bushings. Vararam intake. I not sure I'm in the right class but that is what they suggested.

The classes that the G8 can run in are

FS - STU - ESP - SM - CP

The new supplemental RTR class is also an option.

How are the classes determined though? Is it based off of some formula of Car + Mods + Driver Skill?

 

[JonRobbinSS]

No formula. Just allowed modifications to the car differ in each class, within each class there are sub-classes based on broad types of cars

Driver skill is up to you.

Is there a page that explains classes in plain English? Often I find things that cite rules/regs and are hard to fully understand.

I was looking at rtr to put me with a couple of stangs. Sto is the catch all class here and is basically run what you have on street tires

Where are the guidelines for rtr? I might head to Lexington ky Sunday and try that class

 

[ChrisSRT]

I've run ESP, ran with F bodies and mustangs.

 

[jmon123]

I don't have the tires for ESP. It is loaded with z06's

 

[ChrisSRT]

I ran ESP on the stock tires, I've only run against Z06's with my Viper in ASP

RTR is the same as stock class (FS), only on street tires (if I remember right, the minimal rating of 140). The cars from different stock classes get indexed according to their original class'es performance. And no, it's not a seriously competitive car in either FS or RTR

I actually ran my GXP at a National tour event in 2012, got the last place in class. I've done no clean run in the 1st day, but even if my best run were clean, I still would have been last after two days by about 0.01 seconds Maybe the Yokohama tires were not the best choice.
