New rules for Gillette, the full cradle won't fly, no dashbar with distributor protector, original leaf packs with 4 clamps max, the floor plate can only be 1/8" with 1" overlap from hole, cage uprights can't go to frame, no rear bumper swaps. Probably more but this is what I know off the top of my head. Might have to look North like Chinook?

Yea I read Gillette's new rules. I would have to rework alot of things on this car to be within their rules. I had hoped they wouldn't change them as much as they did but I guess, O well. Not much I can do now. Maybe i could throw together a different car for it

Still gotta trim my core support and drop it down about an inch more so gotta take it the whole front clip back off and break out the cutting wheel, but I do like how it turned out so far. New rules allow for 1 inch all thread in 9 spots for the hood so it will be interesting to see just how nasty the front of this car will be
