MWAHAHA A low class killa is on da loose!

[incubus_boader]

So the motor and everything with my rx-7 is taking a millenia so i had to find something to race with for this year. I dont want to buy another car to race with cause i want to save as much money as possible to finish the rx. I have my 96 accent, but figured it too slow to compete, unfortunatly this thought caused me to miss my first event, beacause...I was busy putting in a 2 litre tiburon motor! I have to say the little car is now suprisingly quick with this combination...Can't wait for the next event and tear it up on the track!

What suspension will you be using on your accent?

[G-ForceJunkie]

so what class we talking?

[John P]

A high powered Accent going around the track on its door handles may be slower than a stock Accent trying to find its door handles. What suspension are you running??

[Boostgod]

nice, ill have my R ready for the next event, im just waiting on a clutch. See you there beyatch. ;)

bring it on sean.... make em pay

[thgear]

here i thought i might actualy have a full class.... :(

[Terrh]

umm, you're suppossed to lift up the engine with the engine hoist, not the car! hahaha, nice pic :)

I heard that you can take a stock hyundai sonata and put a DSM engine in it, now that would be a sleeper!

Ya you can and people have...the old excels and sonatas used the 4g63 engine so its a bolt-on swap to a 4g63t.

Im not really sure what class im in yet, Im going to weigh the car and submit it for classification.

I plan to be running stock suspension with r-comps, depending on were i end up in the classing. Hopefully its not too soft that it'll roll-over, i guess well see! can't wait to see everyone again at the track!

Just remember that you need a roll bar and fire extinguisher, or > 4 bPIPs before you can submit a race a weight.

[incubus_boader]

I thought that with a motor swap you were allowed to submit a race weight?

[G-ForceJunkie]

It's easy to get 4bpips anyways. remove a single headlight (1bpip), a piece of the A/C (0.5bpip) (if equipped), a few pieces of interior trim (2bpip), take the button to open your sunroof off (1bpip) (if equipped), remove some padding from your passenger seat (1bpip), etc.

If you want to weigh your car, it's not hard to be allowed to.

Ummmm .... that was a test to see if you read the rule book :rolleyes: :D

bpips are doubled though aren't they? At least according to the CCDB.

Depends on your HP, and bPIPs are always bPIPs. They get factored when the conversion is applied (based on HP). However, the race weight rule is for > 4 bPIPs, which is the same for everyone.

[thgear]

well see i think the problem will be that the new heavier engine is gonna get dropped into a car that was rated at a lighter overall weight

now that he will submit his engine swap "HP", its just gonna be rated against the old weight of the vehicle, which is obviously less

not to mention the fact that suspension classification is not changed, even tho the cars weight bias is probably changed now as well.

kinks Arek, kinks... ;)

[incubus_boader]

Ummmm .... that was a test to see if you read the rule book :rolleyes: :D

So do i need 4 bpips or can i submit a race weight?

[ScotcH]

So do i need 4 bpips or can i submit a race weight?

No, you were correct. An engine swap qualifies for race weight.

[thgear]

heh... i should really read the rule book.... :rolleyes:

Sounds like quite the beast..... see you at the DDT Sean.

well I think beast may be a little overstated as compared to your rustang, but its certainly much faster then any stock hyundai, or honda for that matter :D

[incubus_boader]

So it looks like T1 it is then...who else am i racing against?

[AirCooln]

Darn. I was suspecting and hoping that it may be a T2 contender. I wanted some one to play with in my so-far lonely class.

[Logan]

I'm in T1: Stock RX7 GXL

i would worry about that crazy guy in the golf flying from behind ;)

So it looks like T1 it is then...who else am i racing against?

your up against Jason Alt's crx... if he is still going to compete, considering he propostioned Adam both events and beat pax, id say you got some serious competition

[incubus_boader]

to get down to t2 id have to weigh 150-200 more lbs...Hmm maybe alot of roll cage will do the trick?

[Boostgod]

just tell them to include your fatt ass in the weighing process LOL jk.
i dont know if im gonna make it :( that damn clutch is taking its sweet ass time. i might have to street race my plastic tricycle.

[incubus_boader]

thats no good man...and by the way with my fat ass i would be in t2!
