A rental car cannot pass tech and should not be inserted into the ladder.

Greg,

I don't agree with the rental car concept either, but other than fuel check (which is not done until after the run), why would a lower class FWD rental car not pass tech? AND, if you were ambitious enough to rent a car at home, remove the catalytic converter and add race fuel, and develope a program for a given car, and then always rent that same type car at any given race, you might be a contender, and never own a race car or even a tow vehicle for that matter.

I thought you had to have 1/2" bolts holding the battery down, no coolants and aftermarket racing wheels but after looking at the rule book I guess not. My main concern is putting them in the program knowing they cannot run causing the ladder to change. Also could have made it a 65 car field and could cost someone to lose a divisional or national championship.

That's funny Jeremy, I thought you lost the championship because the other guy earned more points than you!

I believe Bob is correct!
If a rental car is so bogus or bull****, try renting one next time. Maybe we should outlaw FORDS? or maybe racers who do not run the entire length of the track under full power???

seems to be a lot LESS whining at the track!

Dean, We're talking about a car that's not going to see the track and inserting it into the ladder. That is Bull****!
