I don't see the XB listed in the SCCA classing. In the past SUVs haven't been able to run because they are too top heavy. Not sure about the XB. I'll see if I can find out what class you'll be in...
Check back on the board in a day or to and I hope to have an answer for ya!!

thanx man, on the window sticker in the fuel economy guide, its listed as a small wagon. and it has def. surprised me on how well it handles and it rides like a go kart(after having it for 4 months i m still saying this). i can tell u its def. not an suv and i met some1 that auto-x's theirs. his is lowered an inch, but that shouldnt matter too much.

I'm guessing that the XB will be in H Stock. That's where the XA is classed. I'd say to go with that unless.... I'll let you know on here if I get something different.

No bug in HS this time! I went to tire class after the SCR BMW event convinced me I had a chance there. Just got my new front sway bar. Can't wait to try it. Can't wait to see the XB, we were looking at one of those to drive, but not to autox. Should be sight, and a load of fun! Greg

In the old forum there was a pic of an XB at an autocross event, so someone else is doing it. Should be fun to watch. And, yes VMan may be in Tire class, but we still get to see an example of fine german body roll wit the Vdub...

Yep, you pay at the event. Be there early so you can get through the line fast. Sounds like your going to be in h-stock novice. I was in h-stock last year with my 91 Geo. This is fun no matter what class your in.  |
