Glenn is right, the fact that these are not allowed is not new. Drivers have asked for them on and off since I started CMC. I myself bugged Tony G when I started about similar options circa 2001. Caster/camber plates bring many of the same benefits, but they bring the most important one: allowing the rance of alignment settings necessary to make tire wear decent. Rear upper mounts do nothing other than drop lap times.
Thank you Glenn for your help in ensuring the Texas drivers understand the rules and stick to them.
"Ratting out your friends" is an important phylosophical problem we all face in ammateur racing. I would hope all of you would have the confience in your officials to tell them your the honest truth whenever you find something wrong or simply something you think isnt quite right. Its not supposed to be the responsibility of a driver to confront another driver about legality. Thats what officials get paid so much to do. Keeping those conversations confidential is necessary, so asking Glenn who brought this particular deal to his attention isnt (IMHO) constructive.
