USCC = Ultimate Street Car Challenge. It's a competition put on by a Import car magazine that judges cars on several different catagories. Examples would be : dyno numbers, slolem, braking, comfort, emmitions, 1/4 mile times, stereo, looks, ect.
I dont think it would do well. Many of the cars are putting down over 400hp with major suspention and interior modds. An SVX would need a little more than just the stage III. Most of those guy's have about 50 to 80 grand in there cars. |

Did you check out the last contest,one guy had something like 350 hp in a suby impreza which was the lowest hp figure but posted the second best 1/4 mile outrunning cars with twice the hp.Don't under estimate a awdsvx.If I had awd I could run a twelve,the svx has awesome midrange which make for some pretty impressive 1/4 times,take those 550whp supras on street tires and all you have is a low 13 second high mph car.I do think a stage three stock interior svx would rake up enough style and luxury points that it would finsh very high like top three.

I think the largest factor besides the power issue, would be handling. Diden't allmost all the competitors lay around 1 G of latoral grip. You would need some very stickey tires, and need a complete suspension set up. Springs Konis, sway bars to keep up then have mthe driving skills for the road course. Maybe even some big ass brakes. Plus iam not sure the 4eat, or a 5mt would handle the burn out contest well.
