At this point, I wouldn't worry too much about prepping the car for STS or STR or any particular class. Learn to drive first, then worry about it. IMHO, the most important thing when you're starting out is to keep your car consistent.
If you really want to go nuts prepping the car in the future, C-Street Prepared is a good place for Miatas, although competitive cars are only barely streetable and usually trailered to events.
that's sorta what I was getting at ... the ST prepped cars are a lot of fun to a-x and if not prepped to an extreme are still streetable ... but IanF's right ... for the time being just drive the car, in what ever class they put you in, and learn as much as you can ...
unless you have a buyer for the LSD and the clutch/flywheel
Thanks for the input guys!
I'm trying to be sensible earlier rather than later on this, in light of my budget (unimpressive), current tool/workspace assets (laughable), and vehicular bounty (limited to this one car at the moment).
Removing perfectly functional performance parts just feels wrong, ya know?
:P
Second autocross complete!
I'm going to use this thread instead of adding clutter with another.
Was up front about my flywheel vs class situation, my slight grasp of PAX tells me that it bit me in the tuckus... a real CSP miata is waaay faster than my 'CSP' miata
VCMC Autocross series event 4.
Course Map
Scenery! (Y'all will have to take my word for it that it always rains around here.)
'Busa Powered
RHD STi Wagon? Yes please.
My picture does this backside little justice.
I'm told these guys are sort of a big deal.

I don't remember from the original post ... but I'm guessing you're not on R-comps and they are ... makes a big difference

Very good point. Bonus, I have an interior, intact fenders/quarters, and masquerade as a street car.
(Never mind the fact that there was a ten second gap between me and the next slowest CSP entrant, 48's vs 58's )
