    I went to form drift saturday...

    I'll be checking the calendar, but I THOUGHT I saw it on IA about the 27th, but now all I'm seeing is the drift thing.

    And I'm just getting into it...solo II, if I remember right. Stuff like what they do at Turner. Yeah...I'm a noob... LoL.

    For now, I'll be running my 91 hatch with an LS motor. Unfortunately, that'll throw me into the upper classes which is NOT where I wanted to start out. I'm working on getting another EF so I can build it with a 'stock" motor and get into a class a little closer to where I belong. For now, I just wanna go out and have fun with what I got.

    the stock class is just as competitive as say, street mod. there are good drivers in every class, there are no "upper classes". dont expect the competition to be easier just because the cars in a certain class have less mods. rather than choosing a class by your personal skill level, choose a class based on where your car will be the most competitive. i would focus more on learning how to drive before worrying about what class your going to run in. for example i drive my jetta in sts even though its slow as balls, but im gaining experience and eventually when i know what im doing i might buy something more competitive like a miata or ef hatch like yours.
