Lot of precedent for folks renting a minivan that's in the guide, passing tech to get their grade point. Avis rent-a-racer....cheaper getting to the track too.

Mini van would work for stock, but don't you have to have the grade point in the the class you what to run in. Say super stock would have meet those safety requirements? Also how did some of the pro racers get to run some nat events without a grade point? Can someone else get your car teched in for you if they have your membership and number card if you are going to show up late? Tom

Kinda looks like any one who entered a Pro category this year is in the top twenty!

I remember years ago reading about racers doing that.

I wonder if any of the current rental vehicles are even listed in the classification guide ?
