Yeah I think it will. Not sure whether the hillclimb classes are the same as at the track but for Type 1 road reg class one of things is that I can only have modifications in existing OEM positions. For instance a FARB is ok because the factory had one there. Even a RARB was ok because it piggy backs the axle and doesn't need modified mounts etc. They haven't found the intercooler water spray yet... What they did quibble over was the rear strut brace because the factory definitley doesn't have that but they let me through. You'd think tyres fits the 'OEM position' thing but I did notice that all the type 2's had r specs but I don't know if thats because they are all just generally more modified or if its a rule.
Even if I did go up a class I wouldn't mind - I just want to race my own times and keep getting quicker and learn as much as I can about setting up the car, not so much to 'beat' anyone else. I'm sure I'd be way quicker with proper R specs, not having to wait on the throttle on the uphill hairpins till the car gets straightened up. That would be nice and less frustrating but maybe less challenging?
