am i thinking correctly?

First topic message reminder :

In stock, with a tahoe you can remove the 3rd row and stay in stock? But in a astro i CANT remove the 3rd row and stay stock? Both have removeable 3rd rows.

anyway.. started building guess ill run mod. while s10s with UNBOLTED rear seats and cut wheel wells run PS.

just email r&e and send your "donation" for the anuall usaci ball and im sure they will approve it! lol

Ohhh.. now i see

O my.....

Ouch

LMAO

I guess this is one of them things that only makes sence to me , since im the one wanting to do it ? My $hits going to all be behind the c piller any way.. like i could keep up with a s10 or crx in prostock

i know what your trying to say and it makes total sense. I have a 1999 Chevy Astro sitting here that woulnd't mind running in stock class also.

write a letter to rules and ethics. get it going.

Here we FU(KING go again.

Look instead of talking about it and throwing my Dung Pile in it all the fukin time, write the rules and ethics committee and be done with it.

I agree 100% that the 3rd row seat should be removed (EDITTED BY ME BECAUSE IT AIN"T WORTH THE HASSLE)

Rob, I hope you didnt think my comment about writing rules and ethics was about you, it was to get them to follow the proper procedure and let it fall where it does.

Not at all.

I'm just tired of stupid comment about my truck when others have tried worse without using the proper procedure.

Alan, do what you do man and I wish you all the luck getting this rule clarified. As it should be

^Agreed. 3rd row should be able to be removed. Didn't do to bad on dash with what I had in my caravan, but would make it a little more fair.

who was digging at you rob? alan even said he wasnt talking about you in particular and my comment was towards the stupid rulings r&e makes about stock and prostock vehicle, so who eactly are you refereing to? maybe a guilty conscience is catching up with you about getting rulings you know shouldn't have been allowed but were. not your fault. you went thru the right channels and did what you were told was ok. ethically, the question probably never should've been asked, but you went thru the right paperwork and thats great. believe it or not, none of this was about you, just the rulings. they are absolutely obserd and there is no LOGICAL reason for allowing the things they allowed people to do other than it was a personal favor. give me 1 LOGICAL reason you can cut the bed of an s10 and not be in mod. they tried to make people run supermod because they dont have wipers but you can cut the bed in stock? seriously man, come on. your just taking it personally because it your the only 1 who actually did it. its really not about you, i promise.

All I have to say is maybe EVERYONE needs to look in thier own back yard before they worry about others. Meaning, everyone has pushed the rules some (ME) just did it the right way.

exactly! i agree 100%

YES suvs should be banned forever!!! UM no jeff. its a i wana build my astro behind the c piller, under the window line and stay in stock like SUVs can. Im only bringing up the tahoes because you dont have to have the 3rd row in the stay in stock. If it goes in mod then so be it. Its getting built to pound anyway. If i was building something to be competitive id just wall it up.

I didnt read past this post, theres 4 pages so maybe this has already been answered but I've been running my Expedition in Pro Stock for the last 3 years with the 3rd row out of it...I don't see why this should be a problem. If there is a rule that states we have to keep the 3rd row in than someone should write to the rules n ethics, it'd be my guess they'd rule in favor of allowing the 3rd row to be removed.

Rob, ANY time your truck has been mentioned is ONLY for the reason you just stated. its a shitty rule and you built to it. Nothing wrong with what you did. When i say s10s.. thats plural, and that means every s10 owner can UNBLOT the rear seats and cut to make room for batteries. But a SUV or van cannot flip 2 latches and pull a REMOVEABLE 3rd row.

And im not here trying to push and make a new rule. I was asking about the rule and the discussion started . But now thats its gotten this far, Where do i find the proper info to bring it up?

All the way to the bottom Alan is the best place to start
