Race it stock, trust me...All the mods you can do to your car will be *nothing* like plain old seat time.Mods might get you a tenth here or a tenth there. And they'll likely push you right out of G-Stock and into Street Touring-S...which is a LOT more competitive...Suspension mods (anything beyond taking your car to Discount Tire and having them re-align the car to *your* specifications) will bounce you RIGHT out of stock class...**Tightening the nut behind the wheel can gain you FULL seconds on your time.**Which would *you* rather race as a noob...(Note, these are the Season results from the Pittsburgh area...)G-Stock list...Best to worst points listings...89 HONDA CRX04 MINI COOPER00 TOYOTA CELICA, 92 HONDA PRELUDE4e04 MINI COOPER S98 DODGE NEON00 ACURA INTEGRA01 DODGE NEON04 MINI COOPER S03 MINI COOPER S98 PLYMOUTH NEON92 HONDA PRELUDE04 ACURA RSX02 DODGE NEON03 VW GTI90 HONDA CRX03 COOPERS MINI03 ACURA RSX00 VW GTI04 MINI COOPER S98 PLYMOUTH NEON04 ACURA TL02 TOYOTA CELICA05 MINI COOPER S03 VW GOLF GTI96 ACURA INTEGRA GS04 MAZDA MIATA95 ACURA INTEGRA(All in stock condtion - save maybe a shock absorber swap, and a catback exhaust.
