Orginally you were talking about 16" wheels.  That's all it would take to push the Miata into CSP.  My '04 Mazdaspeed Miata (daughter's ride now...she gets it just for autox...wife gets it for daily driver!) gets bumped to BSP :omg: because I run 15's not the stock 17's :omg:  P.I.T.A.

True, but ST2 is an option for older Miatas, an option not available for your 2004 Mazdaspeed. Based on the PAX coefficient, ST2 is a more rewarding class than CSP for someone with just wheel changes.

ST2 is wide open locally.  I've thought long and hard about ST2ifying my '90 Miata just to get a closet full of dash plaques & trophies.  Then again, chasing Hoffman in the RSX is certainly making me a better driver - isn't that the point?

Joel,
Sorry I wasn't implying that my 04 should be in ST2.  ST2 STRICTLY forbids pushing extra air into the intake (a.k.a. turbo).  I was just curious if you were running in ST2, cuz according to SCCA that's only for 90-97 Miata's.
I tried ST2 for a while when I had an 01 on 15's.  The club had slightly modified the SCCA interpretation of ST2 a few years back.  I thought we had reverted to strict SCCA classes (strict classing? waz-zat :ouch: ....just teasing gang!)

I have the stock wheels

but if not having the radio is going to knock me out of stock I'm not going to bother with any of it and somone can figure out how to class it on sunday morning

Change the wheels/tires, leave the wing on the car, screw the radio, and as far as I'm concerned, it's stock.  I may be over-ruled, but I doubt it.
