i just picked up a 2007 bmw 335i sedan. 100% stock, so it should be very competitive in its stock class. only problem is it has run flat summer tires and they're nearly done as it is. they barely had enough tread to pass inspection when i bought it.

the tc as modified as it is, would probably be outclassed in SMclass right?

There is no SM class in NASA. You may be refering to SCCA classing, which to me doesnt make any sense at all. If you change the color of your valvecover in SCCA they will put you in a different class it seems.

The way it works with NASA, is your car stock falls under a pre-determined BASE class. Depending what mods you do, your car accumilates points. You get to enough points, and you bump up a class.

NASA classes are A, B, C, D, E, F, G, H, U, and S. For example, my car started off as an H car stock but with my mods it is a C class car. A stock tC is an F class car.

Will you would sign up as NOVICE class, unless you have done 5 autocrosses.

Christian, I wouldnt worry too much about what class to sign up as for just this one event, nobody knows who is in what class anyhow until results are posted. Furthermore the classes are used really to run for the championship points. But if you want to see what class you would fall under here is the link http://www.nasaproracing.com/rules/nasa-x_classes.pdf . With any aftermarket turbo system a dyno graph would have to be submitted anyhow to determine your class, along with a car weight. It goes by power-to-weight ratio.

If I were to guess Id say your tC would be a C-class car with street tires.

But like I said, don't worry about it it's just for scoring.

We didn't know anyone was interested in doing the bigger track like VIR. If so, next time when we run at VIR, we will definitely announce it. Hopefully, some Scion owners can make it out to join us.

Good to hear.
When we run these events, we normally post this information at:

http://www.ptuning.com/html/news_events.cfm
http://www.ptuningscion.com
or we will start a thread on SL.

Regards,
Mike @ PTUNING
