Fast List stock record
Please enlighten me as to "IF" a car is stock and can make our Stock(Street Tire) list if someone took off the axleback and some random intake bridge with a stock airbox.
I am siding for stock but I wasn't here to manage the fast list when it started so I am not too sure if removing something still remains "STOCK".
If this is stock, we have a new stock C-5 record

Hmmm let's say a totally stock car gets weight reduction of passenger seat removed, a/c deleted ... I would say not stock. The car in question Is lighter than stock as it came off the floor. Not getting into different optioned cars.

Not really sure that it neatly fits into the next category External Engine Modifications (Bolt-Ons)
This is the first time anyone has wanted to update a stock car in a while and it'll take the top spot ...

IMHO changing anything that has to do with air going in or out voids the "stock" nature of the car. May seem silly the minor changes that this guy did, but you gotta draw the line because if you don't, people will expect other mods to be allowed.

Going intake ... Could eventually mean a Vararam could mean "stock". I like by playing by the rules as they were intended. Not stretching them or carrying on making way like Obama

IMHO Stock means how it was delivered from Bowling Green. When you start doing Vararams, axle backs, taking seats out, etc. you're now a bolt-on car. There's a list for about everything so go ahead and mod but it can't be Stock anymore. We run a bolt-on car now but added an OEM lift/duration camshaft but it's not factory (Bullet). To me we're now a H/C cam even though our cam matches the lift and duration that the car was delivered with and the heads are still original.

Thank you for your input!
Subject "record" has not been broken
(I know you were all just sitting up on the edge of your chairs for this) ... BigKleib34 is welcome to put the axle back exhaust back on and whatever was removed from the air bridge and try it again!
