At this point you've established enough reason to warrant your confidence, whether everyone agrees or not. You've also stated you're open to being proven wrong if it comes to that.

I admit, if the lip is in the performance catalog, I wouldn't be running it myself (as I read it, even an oil filter in that catalog might run afoul of the rules)... And it does look great.

edit: I keep interpreting the phrase "This does not allow..." differently every time I read that line, but I think I may be settling on the side of there being a missing 'only' in that (i.e. parts allowable elsewhere and also in the performance catalog are allowed; parts only available through the performance catalog are not.) Which is where you are. Yay for ever-so-slightly ambiguous wording.

Just a point of order, 14.2.F is discussing bodywork, so the phrasing about the performance catalog ONLY applies to those kinds of parts. The legality of other parts in the performance catalog is judged by the applicable allowances - in the case of an oil filter, this is dealt with by the stock class allowances.

Sounds like you will need to have a lawyer present at nationals Justin!

Yea it's on, bumper protection is one of the other reasons I wanted it.

2nd autocross on the BRZ this past weekend. Cold early on and hard/old tires, but still fun.

Finally got to run this thing with new tires. 7th in PAX out of ~85 or so, could have driven it better. Felt like it took a few runs for the tires to come in. A friend in his freshly de-TRD'd D-street FRS smoked everyone in PAX :o

It is a ProClip base with a mount for my tablet. I have 2 mounts, one for phone and one for tablet to switch in and out. It is pretty awesome, actually.

Are you using the re71r as your everyday tire as well? I still have a few more months with my Blizzaks, but looking ahead I'm torn between the re71r and the PSS for my summer time tire with occasional autocross/time trial duty.

Not usually no. I put the stock wheels/tires on after a race event unless I have back to back weekends of racing. Which happens a lot in the summer actually.

The PSS would be the better tire for what you are looking to do and last a lot longer than the RE71R. I had the PSS on my Lexus IS-F and it is a pretty good tire (even autocrossing).
