Matt, the Supra has a Torsen. SM is not an extension of Street Touring so the "no LSD" requirement doesn't apply. SM cars can have any differential that can be bolted in. Your contention that the 944

The downside to letting potential overdogs in and then booting them if they're too fast is the investment that booted competitor made is largely wasted. Imagine if someone builds a turbocharged 968 C

Nice effort Rick. I'm, ah, "concerned" that the new Boxter S is #1 in S2 right out of the box. There was very little development time in that car as far as I know and it still beat some very evolved

The C5 will only get faster - the C4 is probably pretty close to maximally tweaked in Stock. I think the resurrection of BSP shows there is a very large "market" of C4s that'll come out if they have

I was pretty intimately involved in the "Supra in ESP" debate - IMO, the Supra in legal trim is a good fit for ESP. On paper, a Supra Turbo and an IRS Mustang Cobra are almost identical. The problem

I agree with Mark here. STS has proved to be hugely popular and will probably be the most popular class in autocrossing if it isn't already. The tire issue is problematic but certainly shouldn't prev

These all sound like good choices, with the 330Ci the unknown quantity - but I'd stick with the E30 M3. It was a decent AS car and I *think* Tunnell said his E30 M3 could be as fast as his E36 M3 on

I can suggest what NOT to do. If I try to drive conservative-and-clean, it typically turns out to be clean-and-dog slow and the run is wasted anyway. On the North course, I ran conservatively, but I

I'm finding perception is a big part of it. Show up in your street car and find you're running against a tube-framed, gutted, slick-shod race car and that'll take the wind out of your sails quickly.

That's a bit of a cheap shot Paul. Anyone who seriously looks at the SM rules and choices would not say the Talon is the class overdog - not even close. Think about RX3s with 13bs, Integra-powered Ci
