Yup. I'm just going to watch. Was going to run but my clutch was acting goofy the other day and is making me unsure of driving it. Going to the dealer on Wednesday for the new CAT and I'll let them know it was acting up. Plus, who in their right mind would run in all-season tires?

They do run an indexed street tire class ( Sign up for AT class ) Then you run with all the other guys on street tires and compare times based on PAX. PAX= theoretical equalization of one set of mods to another. A stock '93 Miata would multiply his time by .817 and I mulitply my SM2 miatas time by .867

For example the stock '93 miata completes the course in 60 seconds flat. Then multiply by .817 and he gets a PAX time of 49.02. I would have to get a time of 56.5 raw to beat him (56.5 * .867 = 48.98 pax time) See how equal that makes things.

Of course you do have to know what class you would be in if you weren't on street tires for that to work out.

It probably makes a difference. Depending on what engine mods you have, you are either in Street Prepared or Street Modified.
