FWIW he did have a decent setup, stock turbos w/ intakes, full exhaust, alky injection...it was a one-wheel wonder but it still was running consistent low 12's aaaaaalll weekend.

He did seem like a nice enough guy in person, so who knows...
I suspect it's going to be a very competitive field in stock appearing in 2012.

He was very very nice until I ran into him at Taco Bell after the weekend was over, he was really upset we had beat him, that's all I will say...

I did see a lot of cast exhaust manifolds that weren't stock, but I think cast manifolds should be allowed to be honest.
I can see getting my ass handed to me quite easily in this class, I think there needs to be a middle ground between the 350-450whp cars and the 62mm (700+whp class)

IMHO anything you can look at it at a glance and it could be shrugged off as stock should fly.
Given the numbers you have been running in your car you will do great in this class man, you have zero to worry about!
