as far as 16v bats, the rules say 12v system plain and simple, but once again we see the tech groups "clique" on who can get away with what, not saying jason isnt deserving of the championship he was consistant and that won him the championship not the 16v system but it clearly says 12v system in the rules, and they let him get away with it, its never a problem till the next guy gets it and then all hell breaks loose.

I stand to be corrected but i am sure this is the first year for the voltages to be regulated...

In all of our dealings with tech they have been fair, consistant, and considerate to all...

Yeah, pretty much they added it . Covered the rule stating 15v max. anywhere in the system.    Up till now it had said stock ignition system.

which 16 volts is niether so I fail to understand how it was allowed in the frist place. This is where the clarity rule comes into play. The stock terms means how it was engineered and how the engineers wanted to function. None of this comes even remotely close so to stock. So if infact it does offer an advantage or not was mute point "it aint stock so it ain't oughta be there yall"  ;D

Yes, and these are all STOCK Cars LOL.

Stock and other words like Stock Appearing are wonderful terms, they are what creates the grey areas, which races live under.

How many are following these rules?
5. Original wheel arches must be retained.
>>> looks like every one makes their own version of this

All suspension parts are to be stock with no modifying, with the exception of approved tubular upper control arm not of equal length (no needle bearing or monoball cross-shaft) or equivalent.
>>> no one is running shorter than stock springs or race springs right?

No repositioning of the shocks
>>> I'm sure they are all in the original position on the rears on all cars

Hey man I called for clarity and removing of "Junk" in the rule books, I could turn that rule book into a wallet card if you cut out all clutter. It's the same thing where ever you go with the rules deal. But i think whole extra devices is just a wee bit out there.
At any rate it's done so not much point going over that again.
The wheel arch thing is an invalid rule, you can't have 4" ride height with stock wheel openings, so you modify it. Your modifying a stock part to be retained just tweaked to further the function and safety of the car.
Again with the springs you can't get to the ride height without reducing the spring height, this allows modification to the part. The spring becomes a non tech item, but they are still there.
This is not a purestock class so why try to interpret that into the rules?
As for shock location ares are in the stock location on the fabricated section of the chassis, we built the whole thing to be stock as the factory intended but just replaced with corrosion free materials. If somebody is moving something well that's up to tech to catch them.
Having raced at allot of different track I would say the tech crew is doing a good job and the rules are reasonable for the most part. I've seen a hack of allot worse, and cheating stuff you wouldn't believe you could get away with!

You are quite right DB1 all those stickers on the side of your car are not stock either ???
The 16 volt ruling is a joke the battery alone is a rough 14 V The 12V with Alternator is 14.5/14/9 a little more who is cheating?? And it is stock. Heard for years guys for years saying they run no alternator and winning yet thet remove good stock ?? Is this circle track racing or circle brain racing LOL
