Yes the Monte came with buckets but I prefer the mid 80's style Camaro seats with the higher back. If we want one rule then we need them all. How about the car you race must have had the same engine and trans combo you run now. Not available with but actually came with. Again, I don't see any harm in changing seats from the same manufacturer so long as I am still legal in weight.

2009 Rulebook (newest one I have in print)
Page 14, How to use this rulebook, paragraph 3, "it is the general rule that unless optional performance equipment or performance-related modification is specifically permitted by this rulebook, it is prohibited".
Page 15, paragraph 2, "Unauthorized cars, parts, and/or equipment will not be considered approved by reason of having passed through technical inspection at any time, or any number of times. Moreover, having passed through technical inspection at any time, or any number of times, is not a defense to a violation found on further inspection".
Travis, I'm a little disappointed in you! I thought you would have quoted this from memory! (giggle)
