Just so you guys who are saying this know... you don't HAVE to modify your car more if you move. My car won't be anywhere near the limit of the rules, whether it's in STS or STX. And the Group N rally brakes that I have on my car that aren't legal for STS aren't going to make my car measurably faster on an autox course compared to the stock calipers, rotors and upgraded pads (which I'll need to buy, if we all stay in STS :( ).

I would like to see what Rodney can do with two tires putting the power down, though. Which is a major reason why I suggested this. :D

Would be nice to see Ryan in STX, too.


STX huh... Wow, I'm honored with your comments. As much as I'd like to pull the trigger on this, I'm going to have to pass right now. My reasons to stay put right now are....

> Just purchased a set of 225 'stones. I'd be giving up some serious tread width to a 245
> LSD. Denis does have a LSD for sale, but if I read the rules correctly, I have to run the same gear ratio if I run a LSD, so I can't legally run the one Denis is selling.
> BBK. How I would love to slap on a set of e46 330i brakes and run it, but then that means I have to spend more money.

All things considered, I think I'm better of to stay in STS right now due to budget and current plans for the 08 season.

I think STS is going to be a blast this year with the current line up of drivers (Jeb, see what you're missing!). Kevin, I hope you'll come into STS and show us how it's done!
