What I can offer to the discussion is that in Comp, when one hits their index permanent - win or lose - one gets weighed, fuel checked, and pumped.

A permanent and immediate HP hit in Stock or SS would seem, at least to me, to be the same thing as a permanent index adjustment in Comp. Therefore, simple Vulcan logic would dictate...

I will add that I cannot find anything in the rulebook that states one can't bail weight out before the scales. That said, I don't see where it says one can't add weight either. It just says "under no circumstances may a competitor reject scaling his or her vehicle or fuel check."
Dan -- You make some valid points except your last paragraph -- forget the Rulebook -- simple logic takes over -- if you and I run heads-up is it okay for me to add 300 lbs.before I get on the scales ? I think not ........That said its not OK to take weight out either -- you should scale at the weight you went down the track with . Anything else is not in the spirit of the rules ...............
