I'm glad Micah did because I was so close to saying "ok, come get it"
I sent an email asking about rules a few days ago, but figure it would be good to ask here as well. First, are there plans to run this series in 2017? I'm definitely interested in coming to play if so. Secondly, I'm trying to figure out if I'm in the stock class or not?
STOCK MOD VEHICLES
-50% of original style body or more- YEP, I've definitely got way over 50% of the original body
-50% of stock frame or more - YEP, I've definitely got way over 50% of the factory frame
-50% of original style suspension or more- What constitutes "original style suspension"? My front is factory coils with a spacer, but the links are different. The rear is coilovers. Since a TJ is linked from the factory, would any linked suspension qualify? If I swapped out the coils in the front for coilovers would I still qualify?
It's tagged, titled, and I still drive it on the street!

Re:
Yea I get that long arms aren't stock, but since it's worded "original style" I didn't know how much room was in there? Like since a YJ is leaf sprung from the factory, I'd assume any type of coil, 1/4 elliptical, or anything other than leafs would be changing styles? Since a TJ is a coil and link suspension from the factory, I'd think any coil and link setup would fit the "original style" requirement? If it's not, is the link length the deciding factor?
Since I'm not a full tube buggy does that mean there's no where I fit into this series?

Re:
You'd fit in the stock mod class since you have long arms in front and coilovers in rear.
The classes are to keep it simple.
On the YJs, stock length leafs in front, 1/4 elip/coilovers/coil springs, air shocks, struts, full elip springs, etc put it in stock mod.
You could reverse the setup, coils etc in front stock length springs in rear = stock mod.
YJ with 4" SOA is stock class
YJ with shackle reversal with lift springs = stock class
TJ with short arms and rear leafs = stock mod
Any variation from stock suspension design other than height of springs puts you in stock mod.
Tom hopefully chimes in if I mistyped info.

The last time I heard they were going to run another series late this fall, not sure if that is still the plan or not

I talked to Tom a month or so ago and he said the series would start in November again but wasn't sure of the date yet.
