Just ESP classed spoilers for areo and frame support in ESP and SM..anything more and your SU.

      Maybe just SU for the first year.

      Picking a cut off year is where people will start to ask .why not one more year so I'm in..
      to add ..adjusting the weight formula would help to for SCCA SM street Modified vs Vintage Muscle SM

      SM weight formula is 1800+(200 x liters)=car weight plus a 200lb drop if on 275 wide tires or narrower. Page 199 in the rule book. To keep the larger cars in the mix it will help to change 200 to 260..In SM the controlled weight ends at 3100 that means any motor size after 3100lb..change it to 3500.WE have locally a 66 Fairlane.66 Chevelle and a 68 Roadrunner.Roadrunner not as often these days..

      These are just suggestions ,I don't have a PT car so I'm neutral on the hole think..

      Reading a rule book can be overwellming at first.To know where I get my details just read pages 81 to 113 in the SCCA solo 2 rule book,107 is where SM starts and things become unrestricted. then page 199.Prepared classes start at page 114.If you want total unrestricted try X-Prepared. Attaching SCCA class rules to a supplement regulations is simple.

      Good Guys has done a great thing by introducing many to Autocross.So CAL Challenge also. Both these orginizations are experiencing growing pains.After you drive for fun then you want fair competition.The SCCA started dealing with it 60 years ago.And work on fair competition every year.

      with time come more details..THATS RACING...

      Great to see the opportunities out there to autocross.Just over a year ago I only thought there was SCCA .or a PORCHE club..Then I went to a Del Mar Good Guys event.PEOPLE ARE AUTOCROSSING MUSCLE CARS and I was hearing those days of Mustangs amnd Camaros at the autocross days are over.
