Forum will no longer be utilized!

After facing many challenges with utilization of this forum for many years, the board voted on the evening of 1/12/2026 to stop use of the forum in favor of the modern, more effective means.

Most of our general club organization will now be coordinated via Discord and results from our events along with schedules and announcements will be hosted on our main alscca.net webpage.

What does this mean for the old forum? Well, in short we are going to stop using it. This has been reviewed several times in the past few years, and there has been a desire for some of more tenured members of the club to have the historic content preserved. In an effort to preserve this content, it was discovered that we could not simply export the content to be placed in a modern website. This forum will now become an archive only forum and will not be monitored. If you wish to preserve any of the content, this is your time to search the pages to find it. There is no promise that this content will remain available forever with the fragile nature of this forum.

    Well he knew the boost had changed as he said he was running 22psi but bumped it down to 17psi, but maybe he thought it was ok because it was via a tune. No big deal either way but was just curious about it when he told me boost had changed.

    I remember thinking about running my old AWD Laser at an auto-x but never did. The main reason was because one of the first things I did to that car was a boost controller, which put me in a class where I had no chance of even being competitive.

      Another thing to remember is that if you have an aftermarket boost controller installed, but set to stock boost levels, it's still illegal. But, if you tune the car via the ECU only, if you leave the boost control tables stock, you're fine. I think thats what Daniel does with the Ms3 and his AP. Unless he removed it ... not sure.

      So, it's perfectly possible to tune the ECU legally for ST in a boosted car ... it's just not common.

        Yeah that was the rule I was reading sparky. Thought our timing and intake/exhaust changes were what altered the boost levels. Indirectly in other words. As the rule allows. I wasn't thinking about the wgdc tables being changed Matt, yeah I understand now. Thanks. So BSP then?

            Can you run N and T? In AxWare you can only use a single PAX modifier. You can't be scored in 2 different PAX classes.

                If thats the case ill just run T up there since it wont effect my points either way.
                would i not be able to run Novice class with a tire pax, kind of like Novice car running a st class?

                  You know Sam, I'm not certain. Keep the same number and the T should keep you getting points. When points are submitted, it will ask to make sure the driver is correct and we should just have to accept the points. I've not dealt with multiple cars in a PAX class yet.

                      I'm not an expert, but I did stay at a Holiday in express last night...and I'm fairly certain that the PAX classes exist to allow cars that would normally be in different classes to compete head-to-head within a class using the PAX adjustments to normalize the competition. The actual PAX adjustment itself is no different if you run Tire or Novice than it is if you run in your normal class...you just compete against others in the same PAX class, i.e. Novice or Tire (or Pro, or Ladies, etc.).

                            hey, you can run whatever class you want to, until someone protests you.

                            If you can run TireBSP, then that is fine. Just look at it this way. You have three ways to score points:

                            1. Travel gets you 2 points
                            2. Finish high in the RAW times (you were 28, 17, 11 in the first 3 events)
                            ----------your class has no bearing on this. This is just flat out who is the fastest.
                            3. Finish high in the PAX times (you were 38, 27, 24 in the first 3 events)
                            ----------this seems to be were you are focusing, so BSP is 0.859, STU 0.841, SM is 0.866, XP is 0.898

                            So take your pick.

                              I just realized, I finished in exactly the same place in raw time, at every single event this season...how is that even possible?

                                So which one gives me the best PAX time? My travel and Raw points won't be altered by any scoring system, so that's why I care about pax. Can't run STU unless I re-flash the ecu. could do that, but rather not. So XP, BSP or TBSP? I just want someone to tell me which is better pax times so I can help us win!!!! That's all.
