Brad, that was taken from last year.

Thanks scheides, i remember that car now. I like that thing.

I agree with your take on the stock appearing deal, but here's a thing almost every DSM has a SMIM on it these days and if anything it makes the car look cleaner, but I'm sure if someone was to try and run it people would complain.

Personally I think SMIM should be allowed and cast exhaust manifolds, then someone could still run mitsu, T3, and T4 turbos.

MAP should come in here and help out. I know for the shootout everyone was complaining about the tin can's that were in their DST class, but that's because ER was driving probably the closest thing to Joe Bucci's car anyone has seen in a long time.

Why a SMIM? Most of them are polished and fancy looking; a non-car person could look under the hood and even identify that as 'not stock appearing'...know what I mean?

i agree scheides, stock appearing means stock appearing that simple(exhaust would be ok). Anything that doesn't look stock wont let you race in that class, i also think they should have more classes possibly like a "super stock" or something like that where you could have a turbo up to 50trim and full exhaust/intake and fmic. along with what ever other goodies your avg dsm/evo/subi would have thats just my thoughts
