A stock LT-1 car with DOT race tires is in IG.
Once you start modding stuff, your class can change quickly.

"92 polo green convertible LT-1, 6 speed, Hurst, Crane roller rockers, all new ignition (vented Opti-Spark, MSD wires), K&N air filter, ZR-1 wheels, Meziere Electric coolant pump, Hooker Shorties from Jet Hot, an R&D cross-bar and camber-brace, B&B"
Looking at your sig, you are at least group II. There may even be one or two things that don't fit into that group too, but I don't have a rulebook with me down here in FL. Plus, you don't have a roll bar so you can't go to group III.

Tom's car is fine in Group II, that's where he ran last year.
When do you get to come home?

The discussion we had last year put me in group II. I didn't care because all I wanted to do was try this auto-X stuff out. The mods in my Vette don't really make it faster. For example, I have headers, but they're shorties and eveybody knows they don't help you with horsepower, they just look cool and run cooler. My roller rockers are 1.5:1 (OEM) no advantage there, just more longevity and efficency. I'm not a threat to take any points away from anyone, I just love to run. So, is it "e" or "g"?

Remember, the real reason any of us do this is for the fun, friends, and fellowship. Plus looking at women in summer cloths straped in to a 4 or 5 point harness, is always a pleasure
The prize money is not enough to retire on.

If you want ot run 315's all the way around I have some Kuhmos you can have, they don't have a lot of life left, but if you want them come and get them. Anderson is not that far from you.
