Just a thought....

Maybe misposted in category, it really didnt have to do with stock well not directly but there was a reason to post it here.

The rule in question is under "general" however it applies across all classes and all rulesets in the NHRA book, including stock (excluding electric vehicles of course)

The interpreation question was really not in regards to stock.

But no different from any other General Regulation that does apply to stock in that .... well, if it says no ? (insert something here) under a General Reg, and Stock rules say see General Regs....then......

I figured Stock would be a good litmus test of that rule, even though its under General.

IF and the big if, IF it were legal in a general sense, and hence in Stock, I have no doubts it would be elsewhere since Stock is as you pointed out really (and should be) a tighter interpreation of the rules.

Hence I posted it in Stock Tech......

See......you dont need to feel dirty, your point was understandable, and I hope my reason for posting it under Stock Tech now clear.

It's about how the rules are interpreted. Stock is STOCK (even though it ain't what it used to be, but I accept that), but come on, a lot of people have worked hard for a lot of years making Stockers what they are. Jeez, I shouldn't have even justified your post with a response. I gotta take a shower...
