Default SM and SM2.

I'm just really curious because I cant afford to compete in this class, but how many of you know what are the kings of SM and SM2?

I know we have a pretty good list of the stock classes, but i havent seen anything for higher yet, and I know a lot of the evos, the monster frankenstein mr2's and other stuff are duking it out in SM2..

Before Neal and Katie moved back to Minnesota, they were pretty well the top car (locally) in SM. 77 VW Sirocco w/ a supercharged engine. 1700lbs or so.

almost anything within the rules that barely meets the minimum weight requirement will be the car to have. the rest doesn't really matter.

No airbag in the stock steering wheel AFAIK.

It's completely SM2 legal. Removing of the airbag is allowed in SP, and SM takes on all the SP allowances plus the SM ones.

He bought the car as a salvage stripped of most of the interior as well as the top and body panels. In order to run SM2, he had to have the top and all body panels which he had not managed to source and get put onto the car by that point.
