You can find information at the Super Chevy Show webpage.

Most folks around here would either run the DOT class if you're running DOT tires and mufflers, or run the Bracket #2 class, which allows slicks, open exhaust, etc, but is a footbrake class (i.e. no tranny brakes, delay boxes, etc.).

It's a lot of fun!

Thanks GeorgeC, But do you know if the DOT class allows ET streets and Cut-outs? I appreciate the link. I'll read up some more. Thanks again!

As of last year, they allowed ET Streets in DOT bracket. I assume they allow cutouts too. They will reply promptly if you e-mail them at the address on the SCS web page.

Like Kristi said, they allow ET Streets for sure, since they are a DOT approved tire.

As far as a cutout, it would probably depend on just how loud the car is. Technically, that should be considered open exhaust, but I don't recall cars with open cutouts being that loud. You could always email them like Kristi suggested and see what they come back with.

James, I'm 99% sure that you have to leave the cut-out closed. If it is open and in the DOT tire/muffler class you would be disqualified if they caught you with it open during competition.
