If you're new to autoX don't worry about any class prep. My advice is get some decent tires (Z2s ect) and spend the rest of the summer on driver mods, not car mods.
Yeah strut bars are just borrowed for fun.
I'm either going with Z2s or the RE-11As not much price difference but I think the Bridgestone's would be better daily driver if I get caught in the rain.
Hoping I can dig up some direct testing between the two.
Crap i might go with the Z2s now because i can change sides because they are symmetrical

I heard the EVO school would help teach me some stuff. Plan on taking that in June.

So I guess I'll just stick with the RTR Class, I mean because I do want to compete a little but I mostly want to focus on learning and getting better.
