    Great Vids! Thanks to everyone who helped put the event on, this was my first event participating. Great track layout and really enjoyed it! Sorry if I forget anyone's name who I met I'm horrible with names.

    I was running group A and working Group C but I managed to grab some photos of Group B. I'll upload a link to the gallery on my website for viewing and then a link for anyone who wants to download the photos. I'll be updating it as I get through the photos, I took a ton so taking my time a bit. Thanks again for the great event and cant wait for January.聽

    Heavily Modded M5 Class question

    I think the XP vs DP is set by how much it weighs. The min weight for each class is calculated by engine displacement. What year M5 is this? I can't tell from the pictures. You'll almost certainly be above the min weight for XP, but maybe not DP.聽

    Engine displacement is 4.9l.聽

    It's a 2002 That started out at just over 4100lbs. I need to get it on scales again but based on weighing stuff as I remove it I would venture to be in the 3200lb range. I added a bit more cage bars and used slightly heavier gauge than I had originally anticipated. I was shooting to get close to or under 3k. Need to add some carbon/fiberglass body panels to get there though.

    I do not think you are legal for SM. SM allows limited interior removal, like the removal of the back seat. You can鈥檛 gut the car. Since you still have the original motor, the best bet is probably D prepared. Prepared class is for fully race prepared cars which because of the interior yours is. Prepared does not allow engine swaps in a way as extreme as SM, but does allow the motor to be completely built.聽

    Thanks for the direction. I hadn't even looked at Prepared class because the classing tool I was using said the heating system couldn't be modified. But after looking at the actual rule book closer I don't see that as being the case. 389 pages is a lot to get through, lol.
