CST and Extreme Street Classes 2022

Post by Rick Brown »

In response to requests for changes to local classing for CST, XA, and XB, plus electric vehicles, the following was approved by the Board for 2022:
- CST will remain in place. There was not a clear majority for eliminating CST in favor of XS classes.
- A new class of XEV (Extreme Street Electric) has been created, with an index the same as XA, but rule set of CST
- Extreme Street classes will be combined into an indexed class, XS

When registering, you can only select XS (Extreme Street Combined), then select XA, XB, or XEV from Modifiers.

Thanks for the info. Can you use these indexes to run in PAX?

Just to double check, if I wanted to run a modified electric vehicle, I can do so with XEV but this will follow the rules of CST rather than the EVX ruleset?

No, our PAX class is specifically for SCCA National classes only, no provisional classes or local classes.

Correct.

Not that I don’t believe you, but can you point me to the section in the sup regs that establishes this change?

Just wondering if there is any chance our local PAX class will ever allow CAM back in it? CAM has been around since 2014 what are we afraid of?

It's still not a "real" class. Same as XS. The SCCA is still afraid of it, I'm personally not that afraid of it but will acknowledge that it's open rule set is worrying. That said, you can lobby the directors to make a change but that probably won't happen this year. Even better, you could run against them next year and make an initiative to change it yourself!

Per our Supp regs:
CSM (same as National SSM) 0.883 for 2022
CST (CSM index x .980) so .865 for 2022
