So......a long long time ago I spent a bunch of time here. And then I didn’t (long story)
Well I’m pretty much set on the idea I’m going to be autocrossing a 4th gen again. So what has changed? Some things I’ve found already: Tires are drastically more expensive Available “good” r compound options are even more limited Street prepared has some allowances I would have liked to have way back when The “newer cars” have taken over ESP Wheels have gone up in price. I think I only paid $400-450/wheel for CCW’s CAM C looks like a class that I’d probably run in “most” of the time just for the participation. What else has changed in 10 years LOL |

One thing that has changed for sure..... All forums are way slower than back in the day. Information online is definitely harder to come by Yea, we don't see the volume of posts or people that we did back in the early days. But, this site is likely one of the best repositories for information on these cars and for that reason I do my best to keep the lights on. If you can't find something, send me an email, I often remember old threads and can find things that are a little tricky to find. So......a long long time ago I spent a bunch of time here.
