Sorry, I was simply grasping for a positive from your "pos" acronym.

It is road legal?

The way you have the car set-up is very business proper IMO.

Yes it's road legal, and I finally knuckled under and just finished installing carpet and the headliner since I'll be running a few USCA events. I'll still get dinged for no radio, maybe I'll look for an old school battery operated transistor radio and tape it to the dash, I don't believe the rules specify it has to be an automotive radio.

Nice Tim! In person your car sounds nastier than most every other car.

I remember when you were hunting for a clutch. The article says Ram. Are you still running that clutch?

Yes, the first one went poof in a few month's and Ram built me new one with the 900 series iron friction material and they last a full season which considering how much abuse the car sees is good in my book.

I gave up on any kind of sound system in my car,,,it's not like I could hear it over the motor.,,but I have considered putting in something so there is no open hole in the dash.

Like button! Maybe I can find one on e bay

I copied this from the design rules;

2 points - Interior electronics - working fuel gauge, horn (audible at 200’), basic
or advanced audio system (proof or evidence of radio delete option is acceptable)
I would think the transistor radio would qualify as basic, heck if nothing it would be good for a few giggles.
