You could always download the rulebook, even though it doesn't answer some questions.

Is debadging of the car against the rules? Rulebook doesn't really say.

nor is there any excuse to be an overly sensitive, tight @ss, panties in a wad, lil' girly

technically debadging would not be allowed in Stock, the majority of us probably wouldn't care tho ...

Is there a statute of limitations on cheating? I'm not giving back any trophies that I won with the spare tire brace in. Especially not returning any trophies that you can drink beer from

^For AutoCross, BS means B-Stock. It's the class they put stock RX8's in. Along with a few other cars...

I just use OE ones. I can't imagine any gains on a stock class car, as long as all you parts are working properly. I replaced my OE coils are 24k and 48k miles, just so I knew they were fresh.

Shift ****

If an after market shift **** is the same size or longer than the stock **** would it be allowed in B Stock? A a performance gain could be had if it was shorter for quicker shifts. I just don't like the fell of the rotor head of the stock ****.

I thought shift ***** would fall under comfort & convenience but short shifters were definitely excluded??? Personally I love the feel of the stock rotary shift ****...
