The official contest rules for SMOY state that the cars had to be parked in the Pro's Pick Friday and Saturday. The car in question went over there and parked in the Pro's Pick after the Autocross Friday and was parked in the PP again today. It also made it's required three laps in the Autocross so it fits eligibility just like the others.

I just found out today about the technical difficulties with the car's transmission and with a 12-page thread on this board about that particular car I thought it would relevant to post why it was so slow in the Autocross.

That's about it.

Whats funny about your quote John is that other participants had technical problems and were told by Goodguys staff that if they were not in the Pros pick area by 10:30am on Saturday, they would be disqualified. Had we known that we could have hung out in our booth all day till 2pm we would have done that since having cars in your booth draws attention. I am pretty sure the other vendors would have liked that too.

Look, I don't need this to turn into a "boohoo, Fesler is a sore loser" post. I dig Troy's car alot, he is an awsome builder and we will never have anything negative to say about him. I just think the rules should be the same for everyone (or at least conveyed the same to everyone).
