Carbon fiber hood & SCCA classing
If I read my handbook correctly my STX car would be illegal with a carbon fiber hood and trunk lid and it appears to me would not even be eligible for SP. Anyone have any experience with this? Trying to turn my curse of hail damage into a blessing without screwing up my classing.
Thanks |

Carbon Fiber hood will put you into Street mod. Your classing is officially screwed.

Sweet. Looks like I will be spending my mod money to make the car look exactly the same as it did before Mother Nature rained her fury upon me. What a fun and frivolous purchase!

Don't think I am national material yet. Better make sure I can stay afloat locally before I swim with the big boys

Yes insurance is covering it. However my deductible is eating up my "make my BRZ sound cooler than a Prius" funds

Absolutely I could learn from them and I routinely do from watching, talking to, and chasing faster drivers (like a certain BMW driver).
