Hi James

In street prepared classes you cannot have a 3 point stb unless it came on
the vehicle as an option or standard.  Look at the update backdate rule.
I'm assuming that is the same for stock classes.  The subframe connector
ruling sounds pretty straight forward.  Even diagonal components are
considered lateral components.  Have fun supping up the Cobra.

what scca solo II classes allow the use of 3 point strut tower braces in the
front or rear?

also, im trying to interpret the meaning of this street mod clause:

>Subframe connectors are allowed, but each connector must be attached
individually without any lateral components attaching the two longitudinal
frame rails.  Subframe
>connectors may be bolted or welded

specifically: "lateral components attaching the two longitudinal frame
rails".  does this mean perpendicular to the frame rails?   what about
diagonals?

what does "attached individually" mean?  you cant weld some together first
and then attachment?  how would you be able to divine the installation order
once completed??

since roll cages are allowed even in stock class, how can you distinguish
between what is a subframe connector and what is a roll cage component?

sorry, ive never had to worry about rules much!

thanks,
