I have a Mercedes 300TD. 5 cylinder turbo diesel, with intake/filter mods and exhaust mod/relocation. Newbie driver. Which class would it fit into? Thanks.

What year and can you be more specific about the mods? For example, is the intake/filter something like a common cold air intake or have you changed the intake manifold? On the exhaust side, any changes to the manifold or emissions equipment? Turbo mods?

84 model. Factory air filter removed and ductwork and K&N cone filter installed. No manifold changes. Exhaust is hoodstacked, turbo car. Aftermarket inline filter. No other changes

No can't run XP. Scca won't let the lotus 7 play there either. I think they approved the Adam to run in EM but not sure. Locally run it in STM. I would run that class if my tires were legal.

Just FYI - from the revised SCCA automobile categories most BMW's were moved to D Street from F Street except for the e46 and e9X M3's and some of the 3 liter turbo 6's and the 335d.

So I guess this means the wagon (e91 328i AWD) is out of F Street and on to D Street. Not that it matters to me all that much and I'm happy to stay in F Street if there are major objections. I've found most people don't object when pack fodder makes a lateral move, though.

Steve...I don't care where you run but it looks like D Street would be the new home. Looks like locally F Street is slowly dying many of us have moved on.

I'm sure the Miata boys & gals will chime in but E Street seems likely. Don't worry too much about classification you will start out as a novice running with a group of drivers with little or no experience. Hopefully you can make our next event.

D street does seem to be getting a lot more attention this year. Doesn't hurt that a lot of f street cars were moved into it.
