Dave Schotz won the event in Phoenix today. The car is in impound and he is being protested. (He lapped everyone)
Besides the Cowl Tag VIN and the VIN on the door..... Is there another location where the VIN is stamped on our cars? I'm researching now but if anyone knows the answer, Call me so I can call Dave. 602-740-6933 |

Hey Guys! Thanks for the help!
It's a VERY Long STORY! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/wink.gif) But to make it short... April Fasttrack effective 3/1/05, stated that updating & backdating across models '98-02 was now legal, and only '98-00 models needed to run a restrictor plate... so I updated my '98 camaro to '01 specs and removed the restrictor. Well... the tech guy read it as '98-'00 camaro's need the plate no matter what... but can update & backdate. I tried to explain to him it was written that way... because if you DIDN'T Update to the '01 manifold... then you would HAVE to run the restrictor plate... (I didn't bring my email from the SCCA Tech guy in KS stating all of this was legal)... So... then come to find out this guy also wants to see to VIN's... well... the Door & the Windshield didn't match... he wants matching Vins... so we had to take the whole car apart (I removed the front bumper in Impound!) and find a second matching vin... well we finally did under the a-pillar molding. Well... to really get to the end of the story, after all is said and done... car is DQ'd for no restrictor plate (currently in the Appeal Process)... and we put the car back together... On my way home... I call a fellow Road Racer... and he says' the GCR (SCCA Rule Book) doesn't say the VINS have to MATCH!!! (IMG:http://www.frrax.com/rrforum/style_emoticons/default/rant.gif) So... all that tearing apart was for nothing... the guy was just clueless... The nice thing was the regional Chairman's, Stewards etc.. were all very nice, and said they were looking forward to me winning the appeal. What a weekend!
