The RSX Type S cannot take a 15" wheel without major brake conversions......I think setting a max width would be sufficient

My car is too far off from this class, but if you want any RSX's at all......

You are correct, I did not mean to put wheel size on there.

I like the idea. Some people I think are intimidated to run t4.

I'm sure it is. Is there the same payouts as T4?

This is a great class. I can think of 5 friends off hand who are all 12sec street tire cars who race at the track almost every weekend. When an event comes around they opt to sit in the stands because they dont fit into into T4 and bracket is not too much fun. They will all be racing in this class for sure

that could turn into a high 9 to 10 second class pretty quickly. there are fwd 4cyl street cars that could EASILY run low to mid 10's on the M&H dot's and mid 10's on the 225/50 bfg's......but the rwd 240's should run way better than that with the right set up.........could be interesting. but limiting the tires to 235/60 will keep the class limited......interesting......but the 6cyl and rotaries will be *** out for sure......

Well the RWD's will definitly have an advantage. But I think it will make it interesting.. anyways whats the fastest a RWD turbo 4cyl. has gone so far on radials? Is it still Rick steven's guy w/ the purple turbo miata? He went what? 10.98 once and alot of low 11's.

your right, is there anything you can do to keep it close? Miata's, 240's, and MR2's will definitly have the advantage.

Can I run may Galant Vr4? I have no problem running street tires. Are AWD's OK? If so you can forget the RWD's.

Honestly, i think this is a great idea, but I think it should be a fwd class. RWD and AWD street tire cars will definitely dominate. Easy Street runs consitant 9's with true street tires, and any rwd/awd car will easily get more traction than a fwd. Keeping it fwd will keep it competitive...

agreed 100%.i say make it a smaller tire if it is going to be fwd only.235/60 is way bigger than most people run on the street in a fwd.make everyone run 225-50-15 g-force tires.that way,everyone is on even turf and you could get big $$$ from bfg

all fwd cars should get the power adder, regaurdless of 4 or 6 cyl.......

rwd gets NA.

4cyl awd......forget about it. it wouldn't be fair to allow them a poweradder and they could NOT compete naturally aspirated. although, with only one power adder, the awd cars would have trouble running quicker than mid to low 10's.

not letting the wrx's and evo's run would take out a lot of racers.. and it would be fun to see them run. dont say they cant just because it will make it a challenge to beat them.
