Shouldn’t be allowed. Was one in Vegas on a stocker. Lots of people went to tech in regards to it. But tech said it’ doesn’t say you can’t run one in the stock rules so it’s allowed.

So if the hood has to be right, trim correct, wheelbase correct, ground effects correct, bumpers correct, and so on. What is model correct about a stripe taker?

Trust me. You couldn’t believe the comments at Vegas about this. He was allowed to run the national and Div race with it but before first round in S/SS cars were all checked for blinders.

Could get a record run with one. Qualifying on ladder can be manipulated by removing or installing.

Seen plenty of them out there over the years. However even in a Comp car that is allowed to extend beyond the front of the car by 7?(?) I believe, the performance advantage was minimal, it was more about triggering the finish line weather accelerating or decelerating at the same point. Not that there wasn?t some ET advantage but it was minimal

I would venture to say, it's going to travel; not everything stays in Vegas.

You are a wise man 1700. I am travelling next to Div. 4, possibly 6 and beyond, it will be with me, maybe on at times, maybe off (as long as the published ruleset remains written the same), mine is easy to remove, and easy to test differences now. The car changed with
recent upgrades. And I have yet to test it with it off. Innovation within the published ruleset is always fun. And it is usually encouraged. Don't hate me because I experiment as I have a lot against me already making a slow car work in the category. I have fully embraced slow just to watch and compete against the really fast. Nothing gets my blood running in these veins better and faster than a really fast car in the other lane (from the wheels up leave in the rear view), and at the stripe! I live for it today...Q passes are boring in comparison for this bracket racer at heart. I would dial in on Q passes if they would let us, just to have a lot more fun.
