Re: Proving Grounds 2012
There may be some competition from subaru's this year if any locals step up and get the new fp black for subaru's.

^I'll believe it when I see it. Last time I was a suby at the strip was years ago running 13s at best.
I hope they show up, well some fast ones I can't stand that tractor sound.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
I think tubular manifolds are allowed as long as the stock heat shield is covering it up. Which would mean a long runner set up would be the only thing that would make it non stock appearing. Although I could be wrong about that.

^This is true. If it has a heat shield it will be allowed. I would think that if you come through tech with a heat shield taped to your massive long runner it would not pass as stock appearing.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
We will work on getting some official rules posted.
This is from last year. It's not real precis.
Stock Appearing Class:
The class is open to 4-cylinder and 6-cylinder cars only. This class is open to FWD, RWD and AWD cars. This class is for the daily driven factory turbocharged & supercharged sport compact cars with original block and cylinder head. This class will be run heads up.
Must have stock frame turbo
Stock Manifolds (Intake and Exhaust)
DOT Radials Only
Must have full interior
I am going to try and refine these rules to help with any questions. I would think that if we open the hood and it appears essentially stock it will be able to run.
We did not allow SMIM's last year.

Jordan didn't allow my tubular ex manifold last year, I even made it so the stock manifold heat shield could cover but he said don't bother. It's not a long tube header or a MAP manifold either. I wasn't expecting to pass tech for stock appearing but I know some other cars did with tubular ex manifolds.
Can't wait for the event next year, glad it is happening! |

Do you allow reconfigured intercooler setups, such as a FMIC on a side mount vehicle?
What about fuel lines and other lines? |

There was a very stock appearing white hatch-back style STi that was running 12.0 flat there last year... had a 20G, but you would never know if you popped the hood.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
Is it a stock heat shield or any sort of heat shield? I would think anybody that is creative and has some skills enough could rig up a heat shield for any sort of manifold.

Re: Proving Grounds 2012
Aaron needs to stop being such a hatter on subies sure they aren't as "out of the box" fast but they are fun cars.. he's the only one I have ever heard that hates a subi rumble and that's eaily fixable with equal length headers..
Anyways back on topic! This would be sweet I would do the auto x forsure
