Maybe it was one of the novice c stock guys who was illegal, the only c stock (non-novice) that could have had illegal mods was the guy who got last. And even I wouldn't protest the last place finisher.

Brandon and I didn't even have sway bars, Nick hasn't even done his OEM crash bolts, and Chase drove slow anyway. The reason we all chose c street was to avoid the rampant modding we got sucked into with stu (and to preserve the warranties).

Could be true but why get pissed about someone you are not even running against?

If the 4 of you know each other and have no issues and a CS twin is the one that is "pissed off". Then nope cant be the guy in last place that is modded illegally.

The issue has been confronted with the person in question and resolved so no need to worry

Just finished installing the Perrin 19mm front sway bar. Wow what a pain!

Can't wait to test it out at tomorrow's autocross!

I'm curious to see if it helps enough to make me get one too. Funny to go from the most modded of the group to the least.

How was it a pain? You can undo 4 bolts take out the 2 links its connected to and swap them out and re-install. Much like what is shown here: http://www.ft86club.com/forums/showthread.php?t=39003

Granted with no lift this would be a pain on jack stands.

If you have to use a lift, it's not easy. I do all my modding in the apartment parking lot on my own with hand tools and my impact wrench. Lifts are for sissies.

I could tell you about doing a full turbo back and headers on my old wrx without a lift or help.

Yeah did it exactly like that. Just not a lot of room when doing it on jack stands in a garage.

On a totally unrelated point, I'm looking for a friend with a lift who enjoys wrenching...

Today's Equipe Rapide event was a lot of fun! I think the front sway bar helped. I hope everyone else had as much fun as I did!

Don't forget next Sunday is the next Equipe Rapide autocross at Lonestar Park again!
