Default Re: 2008 Cobra Jets belong in Stock

Items like missing safety bumpers, lite-weight windows, those are items that make a car built by the OEM not DOT legal. Am I wrong? And in Stock Eliminator, it is not legal to ad or remove such items. Right?
I know the Challenger has such items and I believe the CJ500 has the same items. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
And the Challenger has non-EPA approved engine(s). I'm all for these cars being built by the factory and raced in Superstock were traditionally that is were factory "experimentals" were placed.
I even think some cars like the GT500 Shelby should be placed in Stock as they do in fact offer such a car and it is street legal. It would be great if ther was a weight-break for all the new hot rods, even the 638 HP 'Vette. I think it's great for the sport. But if it's an "experimental" nothing has changed since 1968. It's a Superstocker.
