Yeah, for the most part, cept a smaller sway bar. I see what you mean about the larger wheel size. I'd swap em' out to 17s if I was gonna AutoX.
Agreed, The MSP is perfect, pretty light, good power, etc.
Oh, I see. True, oversteer is your friend.
Perhaps, there's a lot of AXing going on down here. Maybe I'll get back into it since the CSVT isn't the daily driver now.
I concur wholeheartedly, that's one reason the MSP is such a good AXer.
You said trounce pete said kill both sound like you think they will win by a fairly large margin if that is not what you meant by that then I agree with you other than that I am not sure that the CSVT would be on top but I think it would be close either way.
If you still have your stock 16" you might even want to go back to those for AutoX(depending on the weights of the wheels). If you plan to run STS (check Rules either here or on the SCCA site when the new rulebook comes out soon to make sure that is your correct class)
I would upgrade the rear sway bar for AutoX (had planned to this winter along with a few other mods for AutoX on my car before the car died)
Also for AutoX I dont know what tires you have now but for STS the two main competitive tires are the Kumho MX and the Falken Azenis RT-215 I was running the Kumho MX (a little longer lasting on the street and I liked what I read about them better) but many other people run the Azenis RT-215 (including the 6's that I was running against) There is a new version of the Azenis RT-215 (the 615?) coming out in the spring that they are saying will be even better (all the upsides and fewer of the downsides of the tires now)
Not saying the MSP is perfect (it would need to be RWD for that ) but it is pretty good
Not always there is such a thing as too much oversteer but I still had fun out there
Go for it and have lots of fun.
Yeah the MSP is a good AutoXer I wish we had more local ones out there.
For how much lift dive and body roll my car had check out my first AutoX video (from the headrest mount cam)
