The 330i and all 6 cylinder BMWs should be moving to D Stock. Agree that well driven Neon ACRs and 00 Celica GT will be tough.
Heh guys. Have not been around for a while because my hard drive crashed leaving me some sort of password at the BIOS point. Hitting F1 and F5 did not work on my IBM, just 2 years old. Ended up having to pull the battery.
It rained at our 12 AUG autocross and got some good rain runs, unfortunately on the BFG VR4s up front which do not do well in the rain. But at least with the well worn G-Force in back I did not need to worry about spinning out.
Ended up winning G Stock, but lost to a NEW GUY who showed up in a 93 Mustang Cobra. (at least it was an SVT) On his first two runs he was .2 seconds and .1 seconds slower than me. Then he beat me by .7 seconds and it started raining again so I had no chance to equal it. He turned out to be an ex-alcohol cart racer from Florida.
May go to Kuhmo street tires next, but the 4 BFGs with a free G-tech is also tempting. Ended up following someone's advice and rotating my own tires jacking up half the car at a time using a 4' length of 2 X 6 and a hydraulic jack. Worked well without having to take off the jack point covers which is a pain.
