I was wondering if a SCCA expert could tell me where my cars might fit if I decided to cross over(understanding I might be a back marking)....... but I've been kicking the idea around moving forward.

Car #1 C5z ST1(NASA)
Only a rear lip spoiler.
Obviously engine mods
BBK
Coilovers.

Car #2 C6z ST2(NASA) the car has ballest.
ZR1 splitter/undertray and side skirts with a Katech ZR1 style rear spoiler
Stock LS7
BBK
Coilovers

Thanks

If you are speaking of National classes, both cars would likely end up in GT2. Last year they would have been in STO. Neither car would be maxxed out to the limit of the rules. Your engine mods will be key in determining legality and competition weight.

Regional classes they might fit in would be SPO, ITO or ITE.
They can differ from region to region.

Thanks, that is a good starting point, I would only run regionally, the likely regions would be which ever ones that are from West Va. south to Florida.

Running regionally and running the range you specified are different. You may want to run a national class so that you can be eligible to run more SCCA races. So you might want to be nationally licensed but limit how far you tow your car and run both Major and regional races. National races end 2013 and morph into "major" races 2014. Right now we have a hybrid national/major thing going on for 2013 as scca transistions to really make scca the top tier in amateur racing.

The best crossover class to me seems to be SCCA T2 and non aero option in NASA ST3. One might be competitive in both if optimized for T2.

So would would the speedest way for a Rookie NASA ST driver(I have a fairly significant amount of HPDE and TT experiance) to get a national SCCA licence. Im almost 56 and time isnt on my side.

You will probably qualify for an SCCA Regional license based on your NASA experience. Then after running a few SCCA regionals within a 12 month period, you can apply for a National license.

Comp licenses in NASA and SCCA crossover once you pay your fees.
