Pure Stock Thread - Foreign Makes

[gumbalaya]

As a 35 year old fan of Stock Eliminator, and as a driver of a Honda S2000, I would love to be able to run my car in Stock or Pure Stock!!

The car, stock from Honda has a lot of features that make it a fun car to drive; a 4 cylinder engine that puts out 2hp per cubic inch & revs to 9 grand (& can rev up 11,000!!!), has rear-drive, a manual transmission, and is lightweight at only 2830 lbs.!

But it's not in the Guide, I spend 8 months a year out of country, and I dont have the time to jump through the hoops to get it listed.

Like a lot of guys who run a foreign car, I have fun at the Test 'n Tunes, but it would be a lot fun to run Stock/Pure Stock and put some of you guys on the trailer!

It's odd that there are about a half-dozen foreign makes/years listed in the guide. Are those listed only because someone wanted to run that specific combo, and jumped through the hoops to get it listed?
