What are all the classes, where do I learn about them, did a search, no real help. I see people here saying they are building a class 11 bug, or a class 5 baja, me, I'm just building a car any old hap-hazard way I like, but what do the classes stand for and any predetermined pre-requisites?
Thanks.

The different classes are for sanctioned racing. Unless you are going to race this car, you can build it however you want to. If you are going to race it, you will need to decide between a class 11, class 5-1600, class 5, and class 5 unlimited for a "baja bug". Class 9 and 12 are both beam style cars still but do not have a bug body.

Not racing, was just curious when I hear someone building either this or that class of bug
