Just my observation.  |
No, these guys are talking to a small subset of autocrossers - those who delude themselves about becoming 'nationally competitive'. Disproportionate share of autox-ers show up to have fun in their car.
Plenty of rx8 owners spent crapload on 'stx' mods only to make their cars slower, lol.
And notice that they are not talking about stock class either, cause those guys won't buy much from them, hence little sense to start priming them early.
