It won't be permitted for G-Stock. The only thing that is permitted is a replacement filter element.

You can replace struts in the stock class, as well as run any DOT rated tire as long as it is the same size as what came on the car.

Not to be a weenie, but if I saw an intake on a car, I'd probably protest it. Anyone that protests a different shifter on the other hand should be beaten smile

I disagree, a different shifter can shave 1-2 tenths off of a run. You know as well as I do that the more positive feel and quicker shift that you can get with one can make one hell of a difference.

I agree with Dave. I had a B&M before I started racing, and I would dearly love to have it back in my car, as I think the 1-2 shift would improve my times a bit.

That is not to say that I would protest a shifter if I saw one, though. I am rather passive about that kind of thing. If you wanna race with a cheat, then go ahead, but it is not my style. I will likely notice, though...Maybe point it out as well, but I won't cry to the officials about it : )

I wouldn't protest it either unless it made a difference in placement on points standing for the year. It's not really fair to those who are winning the trophies. Some people are really funny though, they get upset at the tiniest rules infringement.
