yea actually not too many people run their subaru's in emod so you might be the only person in the class & might walk away with an easy win

To answer the questions:

Edit: I just registered........last year 9-2x's were allowed to compete and I already see one registered for this year prior to mine. If you are reading this Opie and know any different let me know.
Saaburu 92X's are definitly allowed to compete....nobody really considers then Saab's anyhoo!

Since the event does follow SCCA rules the ALK does bump you into EM, if you want to run in the class you car would be in without teh ALK go ahead...just prepared to move to EM if someone you are beating complains.

Like mofugga says, not many people run in EM....matter of fact there's not a whole lot of people that have the ALK's...

I would definitely run in the appropriate class as the ALK does offer a handling advantage that is not allowed, so it wouldnt really be fair. Since the event does cater to an auto-x crowd I woultnbe surprised if very few people had it since no one that competes in auto-x normally would put one on. At the same time though, I dont like the idea of a default win...I like to compete. Oh well.

I found and uploaded my challenge video from last year, all 4 of my runs. Do keep in mind it was my first auto-x ever.

Its about 55mb, and I would expect the course to be somewhat similar in parts. Enjoy!
