There have been MANY changes for this year. Thank you to everyone who provided input and assistance with developing a fair, well rounded, easy to understand classing system.

Great work in modifying and clarifying the classing Jonathan. Just one quick question, the rule on tires for Showroom and Tuner class basically renders some of the popular ST tires (e.g, Bridgestone RE-01R, the new Kumho Ecsta XS, and the Yoko Advan Neova) illegal since their treadwear rating is below 200 right?
This basically leaves BFG T/A KD, Dunlop Direzza Z1 * Spec, Hankook RS-2, and Kumho Ecsta MX (acccording to TireRack website these tires have treadwear rating of 200 or higher) for Showroom and Tuner class.
Sorry guys - that was a typo! 210+ rated tires are permitted in Showroom (only stock size and location), 140+ tires are permitted in Tuner (unlimited size), and Modified only requires that the tires carry a DOT rating.
Any ENTHUSIAST running pure slicks (non-DOT) has to go play in Unlimited.

I also added another line clarifying sway bars. Sway bars may be upgraded and/or removed in Tuner, but must retain stock mounting points.
Can we upclass this year along the same line to qualify for points if we know changes will be made to your car mid-season? (run street tires in Modified for first two events, then DOT R-comps next three events, etc.) I'm not talking about a T3 car running in the M2 class, but more along the lines of a T# car running in their respective M# class.
Good job Jonathan!
...no that's not an M50 manifold...
Nice job. Looks good and looks like I have plenty of room to grow...
What traction control?
What, no MINI? Last time I checked, the sill plate read "Mfd by Bayerische Motoren Werke..." I'm just askin'....

I imagine George was asking about considering the Mini as a BMW model to be classed within the BMWs.

I'd like to see the MINI in there, too. I'm no autox fiend, but it'd be nice to be classed reasonably competitively (and I'm sure it'd sway me from some of the CDC events).
Not just size, but treadwear rating above 210 as well.
Also Jonathan, you probably didn't realize this but it is great that you can run a strut bar in stock class, especially for Mini's since most need some type of reinforcement on the strut towers.
