Can someone verify this for me??

I pulled this from the Road Race section of one of the Stang Forums I go to and I just want to verify it. They say it is for ESP class...

Can any one help me out?

From the October Fastrack:

Insert new section 15.2.E after 15.2.D and re-label subsequent sections of 15.2 accordingly:
“E Longitudinal (fore-aft) subframe connectors (“SFCs”) are permitted with the following restrictions:

1. They must only connect previously unconnected boxed frame rails on unibody vehicles.

2. Each SFC must attach at no more than three points on the unibody (e.g. front, rear, and one point in between
such as a seat mount brace or rocker box brace).

3. SFCs must be bolted or welded, but welding must be to the OE subframe stampings, not to the floorpan in
between.

4. No cutting of OE subframes or floorpan stampings is permitted. Drilling is permitted for mounting bolts only.

5. No cross-car/lateral/triangulated connections directly between the driver’s side and passenger’s side SFCs are
permitted. Connections to OE components such as tunnel braces or closure panels via bolts are allowed and count
as the third point of attachment. No alteration to the OE components is permitted.

6. SFCs may not be used to attach other components (including but not limited to torque arm front mounts or driveshaft
loops) and may serve no other purpose.”

NOTE: This change affects Street Modified as well (see 16.1.G, which will be removed and superseded by the above).

Motor Mods? Don't have any... Why would I fall into a different class?

I'm asking about the possibility of running frame connectors on this rule...

Here's the thread it's in...

You can check yourself. The 2008 Solo II rulebook is online at:

If you're asking if that section exists in the rulebook, the answer is yes. Your excerpt from the Fastrack does not say when it was effective, but since it's in the 2008 rulebook, it's effective as of at least Jan 1, 2008.
