I think you get moved to a different class. (i.e. no long in GS) You can take penalty points and get moved up. I believe thats what I read in the rules, but it has been a while since I read them.

Definately no longer GS.

My guess is SM or ESP?? The SCCA rule book can be found online, or a hard copy can be viewed or purchased at most events.

Looks like it's time to start tuning up your suspension now too

It's SM because the transmission swap isn't in the rules (at least not that I've seen)

Shoot you could tell them it is a stock 5-speed. How would they know. I doubt anybody at inspection would even question it. What are the chances that there would be someone there that knew SVX's didn't come with 5-speeds. I plan on taking my 5-speed SVX to its 1st Autocross next week. I'm going to test the inspection crew and tell em it's stock.
