Default Another Class ? SS/SSR

Totally confused. I have 2015 C7 Z51, stock except for front splitter, rear deck spoiler, side-skirts, and Hoosier A7s. I thought that this would be SSR, but it only listed 2014 C7 (not 2015). So a stock 2015 C7 would be SS, but with these mods ??? I don't see any other class with a 2015 I can run.

I’m trying to make sense of the class rules but if the year car doesn’t show, I can’t use that class right?

theres no difference between a 14 and 15, so you should respectfully fall into the same class as the 14. You wouldn't be in SS with A7s. should be ssr or ssp

Ok, I thought the same thing, but in 'SS' it lists both years, in 'SSR' it only lists 2014. I thought this is for some reason. Thank you for clarification.

Yes it should say 2014-16 for C7 under SSR. Unfortunately your body mods are going to bump you out of SSR, and I don't see any 20" A7's available yet, so I suspect you're not on stock size wheels? Wheels in SSR must be stock sizes.

So it there a class I fall into? SSP?

Wait that won't work as C7 isn't listed for this class. Hmm.

Your rear spoiler is legal for Super Street Modified (SSM) but not for Street Prepared. The SCCA classifies it as a "wing" since air flows under it as well as over it. In Street Prepared you can only run a aero aid on the rear that allows air over the top.

To be eligible for SSM the car must be eligible for Street Prepared. There is the "catch all" statement for SSP that reads "Sports car over 2.0L not otherwise classified" so I think that gets you eligible for SP and SSM.

You could always tape over the lower opening of rear spoiler and stay in SSP.

My two cents,
