Stock class rule?

So i am asking about the Stock class if the its ok to remove the panels for my system? in 2010 it was legal to remove all panels below the window line and behind the B pillar.

just below window line

STOCK Division: Competitors may not compete in the stock division if they meet any of the
requirements for a “PRO” competitor as defined previously in these rules.
Alternator, capacitance, battery, voltage, and amplifier limits are defined in “Appendix A” (located at the
end of this book).
Pickups may have equipment (batteries, amps, crossovers, etc.) located in the bed. This equipment may
not protrude above the factory bed rail or more than 36 inches from the front wall of the factory bed. (Not
the bed lip). No Speakers or enclosures are allowed outside the cab. Bed cuts are not allowed. Factory
panels may be removed in the cargo area to facilitate system installation. Podiums will be allowed.
Modifications: No modifications will be allowed to the interior of the passenger compartment or exterior
of the vehicle in order to facilitate the audio system.



So seeing this kind of contridics itself. So i think we need a clear cut answer.

i think its legal in a CRX

Removal of the panels is not a modification. Thats how I read that.

At the end of the day.. interpret it as you want.. no one will say anything to you about it unless they are in your class and feel you are cheating. I watched a guy compete with a sub in front of the b-pillar at a regional event... no one even said anything.. seen ralph even post pics on his face book recently, guys sitting on the trunk of a car while its metering, no feet on the ground. So its apparently just do whatever you feel like.

gotta love the rules ...

Even if you follow the rule book to a t, someone will eventually complain. Gotta love it.

aint this outlaw spl ... getting way to many laws

Just got an email back from the R&E commity- it is only legal to remove any panels in super-Stock ans NOT Stock.

i think you guys havent looked at the rules in a long time and there 2012 now not 2010

No Speakers or enclosures are allowed outside the cab. Bed cuts are not allowed. Factory
panels may be removed in the cargo area to facilitate system installation.



should open your eyes when reading mel

now write them back and tell them to read there own fornicating rules as well because thats from the stock devision

this is about the stock devision, and when its singling out a certain vehicle it starts with that "pickups" then at the period it ends about piuckups

when it starts with "Factory panels may be removed in the cargo area to facilitate system installation" . that means vehicles in stock not just pickups

Subject: Re: Stock class question

Looking at the rules posted as of today, are factory panels behind the b piller and below the window line able to be removed? Did this change in 1 months time?

It's official......start finding them panels boys and girls.

Lol bam

just bumpin thiz thread from a couple months ago... discussion is back up

I don't think he was understanding its the cargo area. Because he asked behind the bpiller .. in a astro you can gut the panels bpiller back..under the window line in PS but not stock. To me.. that's how his question reads. The question should say.. "in the cargo area can we pull the panels" and we can.

so QQ,
Was panel removal allowed at finals for stock class?

at least for below the window line?

really? this thread again. i hate your face!!! and i just re-retired.

yes below the window line
