Re: Another new commer
That is correct since the V710's (and the Avon Tech R for that matter - thanks for catching that one Frank) have 2 grooves they are not considered slicks.
Just a quick look at the CCDB and it looks like you might be in SGT3 or SGT2. Using the 2000 Contour SVT as the base vehicle rated at 200hp from the factory here is an ESTIMATE of the classification of your car based on PIPs alone assuming that all your mods are listed and that I understand their purpose (e.g. I took SCT Xcal2 Tuning to mean the ECU is chipped).
Starting PI: 62.4 (PI = performance index of base car)
Starting Class: GT4 (2000 Contour SVT without mods)
ePIPs: 8 (engine PIPs)
Factored sPIPs: 9.5 (suspension PIPs factored to base handling index of 50)
Factored bPIPs: 0.6 or 2.4 (interior/exterior PIPs factored to the power to weight ratio - e.g. 6 pt rollbar, race seats, front light mod)
oPIPs: 3.5 (current mods) or 4.5 (all mods) (splitter, lightened flywheel, torsen diff, final drive)
Total PIPs: 21.6 (current mods) or 24.4 (all mods)
Final PI: 84.0 (current mods) or 86.8 (all mods)
Final Class: SGT3 (current mods) or SGT2 (all mods)
With your current setup if you choose to run non-uber tires such as Toyo RA1s or R888s you would drop one class to GT1 (or SGT3) and running street tires would drop you two classes to GT2 (or GT1).
As Dave said getting some dyno time and weighing the car might yield a better class for your car than using PIPs alone.
Note: I made the assumptions the SVT Cams are stock but the SPEC flywheel and Clutch are aftermarket and 3L oval port is a port and polishing of the heads.
Cheers!
