What AutoX Class am I? SM?

happos2 · 04-04-2014, 06:33 PM

Wonder what class I am in for my Mods? I understand I will probably be in a class where I am not competitive in AutoX.

08 E92 M3
275/18 R-S3 all corners
BPM Stage 2 tune
No Cats
MS Pulleys

SM? Thanks for your help.

For BMW CCA M Modified. Ive seen some AutoX consider RS3's as Gold class though

I have almost identical mods and SCCA put me into STU

Hm, I am really unfamiliar with BMW CCA classes. Good to know. The R-S3s are the 200 tread ware (not the 140 version) so should be classified as a street tire. If that makes the difference.

Gotcha. I was thinking because I don't have a primary cat I might be placed in SM. I thought I read somewhere you had to leave the cats alone to stay in a Street Touring Class. I have been out of the autoX seen for some time so the rules may have changed. Thanks for the feedback.

Cats have to be in for STU.

Gotcha. Guess that hasn't changed then. SM it is!

Actually you can run an xpipe with cats in the secondary location so primary cat delete is ok in STU. Unless they still rwquire OBD readiness which I can't remember if that requirement got cut or not. Have to have a cat somewhere close to the last cat in the system

Asp or SM, and if your region has a street tire class that's where you go, assuming the rs3's have the right treadwear

Well I still have the secondary cats in place. So maybe I can pull off STU then! Much rather race there than in SM.
