Default Need help classifying

I have a 91 Talon TSi AWD with KYB shocks, strut bar, and kumho ecsta mx. What class would I be racing in, I'm new to this.

If you haven't done anything to the boost, and you take off the strut bar, you can run in D-Stock. (Probably your best bet)

Otherwise, you're in STX (still assuming you haven't done anything with the boost).

I am not 100% sure of the STS rules, but I think you are OK in STS with the ported intake, but if someone else has more accurate advice, take it.

As far as the Street Prepared class.. there is not a 1 to 1 relation between Stock in Street Prepared. In stock you have SS + A thru H Stock. In SP you only have A thru F. So you have to look on a different list.

Specifically for the Elantra

So you can see your choices are either STS or FSP. You could actually run either class, unless you have R-compound tires.

STX is your best bet.. Baring that, ESP. That's what I used to run before the Talon become, um, well, juuuuuuuuuuuuuuust a little illegal for it.. That was before SM and STX too.. I had to run in CP with the moostangs.

Would I survive in STX? It'd be my first time running, so what times should I expect?
