Super Stock trans tunnel

Jim,

Some time ago I asked this question to NHRA and they said the removable area is limited to what it is shown in the rule book; 6 square feet and the replacement material type must be identical to the area removed. They also said they don't specify the exact location of the removable area as long it meets the area requirements.
