First off thanks in advance for the info, I came out to a few of your events the year before last and had a great time in my old car (black prelude) and I can't wait to try it again.

Car: 95 civic hatchback
I should be finished with my swap by this weekend......then its to work on the suspension.

Mods that I have as of right now:
OBD I B18C GSR swap with LSD
Exedy clutch
Exedy Lightweight flywheel
Hasport motor mounts
Energy Suspension torque mount inserts (left & right lower engine mounts)
intake/exhaust/header/high flow cat

Suspension plans after motor bugs are worked out:
Omni power suspension overhaul kit (full coil-overs, camber adj., lower control arms)

I feel that what I have already done has put me in a class where it is allowed to run stickies, if so let me know and what that class would be. If not that would be great too. Thanks :D

I have no idea what class that would put you in, but you can even run stickies in Stock classes. The only classes where you can't run stickies have ST (Street Tire) in their names.

The engine swap moves you directly to StreetMod or D/Mod. SM is a "stickie" class. D/Mod can run stickies or flat-out slicks.

"fodder" in the right hands could win SM in our region... :lol:

I had to use wikipedia to find the meaning of this term and after I seen the cars that run in this class it is a good choice of words for my chances in that class. oh well, it'll be fun anyways thanks for the info guys

In all honesty... good wide tires and a good driver and your car can win SM locally.

One of the fastest SM guys in Steel Cities has a B18 LS powered EF hatch, I've driven the car and its stupid fast.

My old number in STS was 75 would I still have the same number if I was in SM? I was wondering because I had a real nice magnet made and if I can keep my number I would just change the class on it.
