Ok, another question. I'm assuming everyone here is running a stock cat, maybe a couple are using aftermarket? How do you verify the condition of the stock cat and make sure you're not melting it on the track? I've looked down the inside and don't see any obvious problems but don't want to bet my engine on it. Any tips?

And on a somewhat related note, how many people are monitoring EGT for this or other reasons?

Found a few other candidates but the offset is more than 7mm different from stock and therefore not allowed in CS. Where's a good place to look for used stuff? I even checked the used race tires sites I could find but the selection there is pretty limited too.
Danny Kao just listed some basically new Rival S 245's on The Racers' Wheel and Tire Exchange on Facebook for a fantastic price.

What is everyone's plans for nationals. Will CS see some rotory success this year?

I am on the fence between running my RX-8 in CS or finding a more entertaining co-drive.

If anyone knows someone interested in an prepped car I am selling mine as well... https://www.rx8club.com/rx-8s-sale-w...6/#post4773361
