The Official 370Z Autocross Thread

[Brendan]

I was talking to a friend who owns an sti and he brought up the idea of giving the higher power coupes their own class. So essentially move the the z34, z33, corvette and maybe cayman to a supplement class of their own. I think that would be a good solution as well.

IMHO, supplemental classes are just stupid. Either make a "real" class or don't. The use of supplemental (and/or regional only) classes just makes it all that much harder to go from regional to national level competition.

The real answer to all this is the argument:

Currently in STU with no boost adjustment allowed,
350Z performance = STI and EVO performance

Starting next year in STU with open boost,
350Z performance < STI and EVO performance

and to return some parity to the class add the 370Z so that
370Z performance = STI and EVO performance
