CAI in STS

I have heard from 2 different people that the 2004 rules allow Fenderwell modification to allow the use of a CAI ie AEM Cold Air.. I have not been able to confirm this in any of the FastTrack publications i have read nor have I gotten the 2004 rulebook. Can anyone here confirm this?

Yeah with attitudes like that it's not worth it to drive hours for a National event IMO.

Ok, that is talking about the plasitc fender Liner and the outer fender, what I am asking about is the hole that needs to be resized to allow the available CAI's to go thru. I am not even sure it is called a fender at all.

January FastTrack, Solo II, Tech Bulletins, item 6) is directed at Street Touring and modifies GCR 10.14.B to read in part "The existing structure of the car may not be modified for the passage of ducting from the air cleaner to the engine inlet."

Why all this rumor and innuendo when five minutes at the SCCA web site shows this, straight from the horse's mouth?

I am on this years STAC and I can tell you that it is not allowed. We are trying to prevent rules creep, but I am going to try to get something allowed. If you guys start a letter writing campaign to the SEB we might try to get a change again. I know that they put a lot of stock in petitions from members.

this is true as they did finally allow motor mount inserts.. i thought i had read previously that they were gonna allow *minor* modification for CAIs. it is unfair in the sense that not all cars need to modify the fender to allow the CAI but others (SE-Rs) need a minor *bending* for proper fitment.

is there an email addy i can send some comments to?
