I wounder if the classes are HP seperated and not suspension.

Your biggest obstacle may be in the smallest numbers anyway. Below, I highlighted in red something you may want to check into before you go any further. This is from 9 years ago:
Class 3
"Vehicles built from a 4-Wheel drive utility type vehicle. Vehicle must have been series produced in quantities of at least 5,000 units within a 12 month period and be readily available to the general public in the U.S.A. Must be a 4-Wheel drive vehicle capable of being driven through all four wheels."
Class 3 is the domain of short wheelbase vehicles like the Early Bronco, Bronco II, Jeep, Kia Sportage, and Chevy Blazer. Known for a brutally rough ride, Class 3 none the less remains popular in desert racing at large, but has recently seen a decline in entrants in the SCORE series.
Often built on a low budget, Class 3 makes an ideal entry point for new racers. The broad, open rules of the class have resulted in some impressive suspension configurations, and suprising performance.

Nice, from the looks of it you can do what you want to the suspension, not sure about motor but id guess anything for reliabilty like a bigger raidiator and so on is ok. Looks like that or the stock mini class. Hmm, wich to shoot for, I have some ideas for suspension.

Unless the rules have changed to include limited production vehicles, you may have a problem.

I am glad you quoted my post, Ldub... I was thinking there might be a problem with the new server not showing my posts to others!

Didnt they import 40,000 in the 4 years it was shipped to the states.

[etlsport]

they didn't even make 5,000 in 3 years combined

Are you sure
"Vehicles built from a 4-Wheel drive utility type vehicle.

Must be a 4-Wheel drive vehicle capable of being driven through all four wheels."

It dosnt say how many needed to be imported, just 5,000 units, just must be available in the US, im pretty sure they made more and sold them in other parts of the world. What do you think?
