The event is limited to 65 drivers.
You get eight runs at NTAXS events, so you will make four runs in the AM session and four runs in the PM session, with a lunch break in between.

9:30 AM Drivers Meeting (mandatory for all)
9:45 AM First car out

Car Classing is based on engine size:
- Class 1/1R is for engines under 2.3 liters, except Honda S2000 and Lotus
Elise/Exige.
- Class 2/2R is for engines over 2.2 liters, but under 4.0 liters, plus Honda S2000.
- Class 3/3R is for engines over 3.9 liters, plus Lotus Elise/Exige.
- Class S2000 is only for Honda S2000 on street tires.
Rotary engine multiplies displacement by 2.0. Usage of forced induction multiplies displacement by 1.5. (This is in addition to the rotary multiplier, if applicable.) Tires with a wear rating under 140 must use the R class.

I've registered, but need new tires. Any suggestions? Last time I bought the same brand/model as the winning S2000 and Dave and I have sucked ever since (yes, we blame the tires).

For DD and autocross I would go with the Dunlop Star Specs. For an autocross only tire the Hankook R-S3. I have only done 3 events on the R-S3's and they have all been open courses, but I saw crazy lat G numbers at the bus lot this weekend on my data logger.

I don't know the best sizes for the 16" wheel, but I have heard from people that know their stuff that you that you don't want to stuff a large tire on a small wheel with the R-S3. Look at their specs and see what fits on your size of wheel.
