Street Tire, RS3.

Waiting for coilovers/plates/bar etc. THEN it will be time to get serious & start development in earnest. Learning how to be a drifter in the meantime. lol

That's why I wanted the BRZ for stock class over the FR-S hahah.

But I am making a serious thought about going STX next year, if the funds allow for another $1800 for wheels and tires, then springs to match the Konis, then big $ for the tune and that's JUST to get started :/

Speed costs money, Henry--how fast do you want to spend? Lol

When I was your age I was driving an old Nissan pickup, trying to scrimp some $ away saving for my 1st house. So I feel your pain brother!

Several years ago, STX seemed inclined to write protests on each other, though I seem to remember it was mostly threats...

Welcome to STX.

I propose that we all go out to dinner together one night at Tours and Pro Solos...

It might be hard finding a table for 50 people :D

I was in STX last year with my Rx8, it was crazy having so many people in the same class. Kind of made it hard to meet everyone.I think Dinner and drinks would be cool.

That's why we should do it at San Diego Tour, El Toro Pro, etc. There will only be 15-20 of us!

So do these TIC solid steering rack bushings kick us out of STX?

Last I read, metal content in the replacement bushing must be the same as stock...IIRC.

@Scooby South would know.

This is why I posted here.. I figured it wouldn't be allowed.

Yes... they are solid... however TIC is going to make a SCCA legal contingent to facilitate the rule for us..:)
