Do they know if you've swapped?
And what if the swapped motor is 100% OEM?

If you are asking to cheat then it's not proper sportsman-like. People will check out your car that are in your class.

If you change the motor for the exact same motor then it's fine, but when you increase power you get put into mod class.

Is that alot higher?
I'm just curious because I would think that if I went to one as an amateur I wouldn't want to race against really hardcore people?

Don't cheat. Nothing I hate more is someone trying to sneak in a mod (or more) into a class to try to win.

Yeah I know what you mean.

It will take the average novice about 1-2 years to really get comfortable with your car anyway. So what you should do in the mean time is to stay consistently the same time behind the faster drivers in your class.

I can comfortably bet $1M that he still will not win. Of course in all the events that I've participated, you need a valid drivers license to drive your car.

Fast drivers win is slow cars, slow drivers seldom win in fast cars.

I didn't suggest I wanted to cheat.
I just wanted to know how the rules worked.
License in 1 1/2 months, I'll post a picture.

I'm very curious about what they consider a mods? Like upgraded exhaust intake? Or more serious upgrades to be bumped to mod class???? Any info would be helpful seeing as how I would love to run autoX but have no clue about any of it.
