Re: New for 2015 Mazda Contingency requirement
Mazda has always had the patch requirement. They don't hold solo to the same requirement but please continue with your follow up to confirm.

Re: Wheel Width v. Tire Question
Hankook 255 tires are wider than other manufacturere 255 series tires. They really need a wider rim than 9" to do their best. I have campaigned on them in my RX8 and I wanted 4 degrees camber in front with more pressure than you are running to optimize. I would recommend trying the 245 as it is...

Re: Local Tire shop w/ RS3?
You could try FRSport in Fountain valley. They may be able to source tires and also they may have some used sets they would be willing to sell from their BRZ that they campaign. Ask for Cat and tell them I sent you.

Re: FC RX-7 classification
If you want to build an FC Turbo it will not be competitive in my opinion except for either SM2 or XP class. It would also be a lot more fun in either class and you would not have to run stock turbo etc. Just a thought from a previous RX7 owner.

Re: Okkk so I got carried away - now what class are we?
The car is fine for prepared class competition. There is no rule i stating that you cannot run more than six attachment points in prepared. You can run no cage or go wild with the extra weight. Originally I was worried about the tubular frame and strut mounts but per the rules that is all legal as w...

Re: March FasTrack
Those were flywheel horsepower figures not rear wheel numbers I believe. At least that sounds familiar to what I have read in brochures before.
