Anyone have the unofficial rules of running a "cam only" car? Or is it just the heads, cam, and bottom end (except for rod bolts for safety) have to remain untouched?

That's kind of crazy to say..... honestly under the premise that you're running with, you shouldn't even be upgrading valvesprings either....

You have to have the chassis capable of getting the job done. Now I don't condone cam only setups in other cars, rails, any transplants at all, I definitely draw the line there. But modding the car, that's part of the cam only "class"... it was done in the spirit of getting the car as race ready as possible, and seeing how fast you can go with somewhat limited power.

After reading this, I have come to two conclusions:

one, people need to learn how to spell or we need a spell check on ls1tech asap!

and two, why dont the people that made the "cam onnly" list and started the whole thing just set straight up rules for your time to actually count towards the record? This would be llike any other class right? I know again, it would be on the "honor system" but at least threads like this would never even have to arise. Just my .02, carry on...

Just figured I'd make that observation.
