NO performance (benefit) rotor replacement allowed in Street category. Oem or oem replacement only. But again, who's going to bring out magnifying glass and check your rotors during tech? You can join the other street class participants who cheats anyway and get away with any solid rotors. But if you get slotted or drilled ect, you're probably making it easy for other drivers to report you as they know Z doesn't come with drilled/slotted from stock.
Seriously, I know people in street class with racing seat, "undisclosed" suspension mods, engine mods, ecu tune, etc. Things that a naked eye can't pickup, people will do it in the street class.
I will have to agree with Jeff. 370Z can def hang in Bstreet. Usually, CS times are (in my region) about 1-1.5s behind Bstreet or sometimes CS is faster than BS. So the the diff isn't much. But as he said, Z will do fantastic on smooth surface with power courses. Z sucks in gravelly, crappy asphalt surfaces. Was this re-classing fair to Z owner? no. What they did to Nismo owners are even horrible. But I think Z won't be too far off the Bstreet competition. You just have to get some street legal add ons (as mentioned above). I just got my front sway and koni yellows and will get RS-3 in Feb. So in a way, thanks SCCA for the re-classing
PS: I was absolutely blown away how well Z turns with konis and F sway. Thanks to those who helped me tweak the shocks with their number/setting. Here's my season finale. 2nd pos in CS (only .3s behind 1st place) with 8 competitors.
