Do I get a trophy for finishing 3rd and 11th in the same class for the season? Maybe someone should check their math....

Did you have to be in 4 events to qualify for the "championship"?
2001 330i (my car)
2004 Audi Allroad (wife's car and family truckster)
Updated results posted.
I think the Minis could fit into either the Touring or Sport classes (preferably Sport).... ?
The autocross committee will be meeting on Thursday to review dates for 07 and we will also come up with a date for the classing meeting.
When we make the announcement of the date of the meeting, I will start a thread to discuss possible changes to the classing structure. I encourage everyone who feels passionately about a possible change to not only voice their opinion at this forum but to come to the meeting to discuss it further.

I would have made 4 events if September hadn't conflicted with the Summit Point DE.... Under the current rules, can you win your class if you're the only competitor and you show up for 4 or more events? Also, were there special trophies for the last event or was that something else?
I usually compare my performance to the E30 325is. On classification, I think it's a bit harsh to apply the SCCA model to decide how to classify the the MINI. For example: put an aftermarket 15% reduction pulley on a MINI Cooper S (a $300 mod) and you're in "mod-till-you-drop" Street Mod class. Buy a JCW car from the factory ($5,000 mod) that includes the same pulley (and a ported head and other mods) and you're in STX.
I'd like to propose the following for the MINI if you're going to drop the MINI classes:
1. MINI Cooper: Touring
2. MINI Cooper S: Sport (this would include any mods that are a part of the JCW package: up to a 15% reduction pulley, remapped ECU, sway bar, intake and exahust)
3. Franken-MINI (turbo-compressor, twin-screw or greater than 15% pulley): Unlimited.
Anyway, that's my $.02 as one MINI driver who made 3 events.
