Your class is "NOVICE" with NASA, and would be for your first 5+ events.

After that it sounds like your car will bump up at least one class from its base class with NASA (i.e. class F + your mods = class E or maybe even class D.)

Also the freebie NASA program for newbies on Aug 31 @ Langley is full:

So you would need to snag a regular entry:

You know Jon, I'm glad I looked up my classing when getting the links for my previous post, looks like I'm gonna have to reclass my Miata. It starts at NXF** (+14) and the only thing thats been done to it is the Enkei racing wheels which are an inch wider getting me a +4 soooooo at +18 I'm still at NXF -woot!

Tire width you mean? There's no points penalty for wheel width...

Yes that's what I meant, the wider wheels allowed me to run wider tires.
Actually now that I look at it, I haven't even exceeded the 215mm for NXF
so I'll take that +4 off and see if there is something else i can squeeze in there.
