    We did bump the start RPM for Dyno pulls to 2500 in case that peak number is right at 2000 when you crack the gas.

    Cory's car (previous Matt's) never raced in legal CMC trim so the long tubes were never an issue. It obviously would need to be converted prior to racing for points/contingency.
    Any quasi-legal car can "fun run" just to shake down while the driver gets the non-compliant issues sorted.

    It never offended anyone. IIRC it only ran one event as a fun-run many years ago prior to Cory owning it.
