Just remember the key word here "UNALTERED". NHRA is taking that to mean completely stock. No drag radials or modifications of any kind. Now policing this is going to be the hard part.

If you have t-tops you still will have to install at least a roll bar, just as before. I'm sure there will be more changes to this rule amendment in the near future.
