There is always a couple ways to skin the cat as they say.
Again .... Not sure exactly what your rules are.
Nope SCCA solo rules suck. You are pretty much stuck with max of stock alignment specs. You have to be real careful in Solo it's not like track. Slow turns in second gear will induce wheel spin. They are also stuck with crappy VLSD not a real LSD like we are used to so inside wheel spin is huge consideration.

A good driver can drive around slight understeer but it's real tough to overcome inside wheel spin if your rear bar is too big.

But I'm biased I have no patience for goofy stock classes in SCCA I want a car that allows me flexibility in setup. I dont want to be a slave to restrictive AX rules. At minim street mod if not prepared are where my cars always end up with SCCA. I couldn't even live with Street prepared. Winning isn't everything for me in amatuer motorsports having a car I can tune and play with is where it's at. It's growing sentiment in my region where we have growing non SCCA clubs that attract 200 plus attendees at each event. Most not running stock classes. sCCA needs to be mindful they are losing mindshare with folks like me and others. I'm petitioning for differnt set of street modified and prepared rules that allow heavier street going cars to be comptitve.
