Whatcha looking for? Give us some idea & we'll point you in a direction (not necessarily the right one, but we'll send you off somewhere). :)

There's also a whole bunch of stuff on the website. Did you check that out already? http://thscc.com

I think the Admin guys took it down because nobody used it. Maybe they just didn't give it enough time.

If you guys want to see it brought back, let your opinions be known and I'm sure it will be considered by the Forum Team.

Feel free to ask "newbie" questions in the appropriate forum that your question refers to. I doubt that the group here will make a practice of flaming newbie style questions.

Ok, what's the best way to Protest a cetain DSP car that's owned by the guy that runs everything?

real question Now. I am just trying to figure out what class I should be in. It looks like BSP, but I am not positive, and would I be more competitive in STX? or maybe some other class?

Marty - aftermarket turbos are not legal in STX, you have to run A-Mod.

Seriously, though, post the question in autocross forum. Please describe the car and the mods in detail, and everyone will be happy to pick a class for you. It's like a game to us rules weenies.

I suggest you run in TIR on Azenis. Some of the officers really like that :P

Graham, I know you were poking fun, but I feel the need to set this straight - I would have no problem with the people left in TIR running Azenis, as long as we can get most of the people out of TIR and into OPEN. It's not about the tires, it's about class size and competition. That is all...

A very little-known section of the auto-x rules...

- Section THX1138
No snot-green 240z's allowed at all. Ever. Period. :twisted:

Oh, and I'm about 90% sure you're BSP.

Yes Mike I was having a little fun. After the ongoing debate in the other thread I just couldn't resist. Sorry the devil made me do it :twisted:
