Any one in STR want a whole lot of ballast for their first run or second?

I want to see what it feels like in a STR preferably a NB miatia.

Also if you don't mind I would like to see if I could fit as a driver, that mean messing up your seat position.

Thanks.

Thanks for the offer,!

You can co drive in TO my car too if you would like, but I don't promise how fun it will be. I am running Fs so I run B so I could do a TO during your comp run group, but I am not sure how you would Run TO's with the new setup.

I think I also need to answer the big question, am I too big? Can I fit as a driver in a NB?

I'd like to stick with my car for TOs, I need more seat time to keep up with the big boys...
But you're more than welcome to see if you fit in the car and like the incredible handling it brings to the table.

Great, I will reg for the TO's and if I cant fit I will use my car, I can toss you a few $ for tires too. I may have a few questions about the whole STR life.

Looks to me like STR got beat up by those overrated STU cars.

I guess this would be a good place to ask...

What exactly are you allowed to do to a car in STR?

Go here:

http://www.scca.org/documents/Solo_Rules/2..._solo_rules.pdf

Section 14 is the Street Touring rules, starts on page 79.

Enjoy!

9" wide rims
255 width tires
Coilovers
front & rear sway bars
header
midpipe
muffler
diff
some ECU tuning, but with some restrictions
and a few other small things...

Its kinda like Street Prepared on street tires, and keeping the car streetable/emissions friendly without update/backdate rules.
