I know its one of the esiest ways to gain an advantage, but the idea behind it was that basically it had to be in its orgional trim with no huge mods.

Brett

You can remove them, just make sure they are back in for the run :)

I think the not stripped out is a bit unfair, after all I was running mine for a year with no back seats or carpets and I would say it is perfectly road useable! lol I can understand the no major mods thing as it is a cheap project type competition, but if it is road legal and REGULARLY used in the same state as it is run down the strip on the road why not include stripped out cars (still doesn\'t include me :-( but hey ho)

Loud? Hell yes! :D

Brett

Because there are somepeople who want to take part who, for one reason or another cannot strip out the interior, so they would be at a disadvantage straight away.

fair enough, I agree that the car should be run down the strip in the same fettle as it is used on the road so if there are people who need to keep their interiors in place for daily use then it is fair to set that as a rule (if however someone had already stripped the car out and wanted to run, could they run with ballast - fastened obviously- to even the score)?

brett i didnt realise were going to have scrutineering lol. i should have it on the road by then!

Brett

:D  Minimal scrutineering TBH, after if someone has ported their engine and not said it should become apparant when they knock spots off of everyone else, and of course the idle if its a huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuge port.
 Ballast would be hard to do, after all, how much does the FC interior way?  And giving somoene a 30kg block of lead gives them an advantage/disadvantage with weight distribution.

I could weigh my interior which is in the shed! lol Doesn\'t make any difference for me as I said, I\'ll have a go, but obviously I won\'t be included in the competition due to the porting and I should have FMIC and hopefully an new turbo by then!
