Thanks! Was that your car I saw on the cover of SportsCar? Nice!

To tell you the truth I don't know if it is legal or not. I don't specifically remember it in the rules, so I will have to go back through it. I am just talking about the black tar gunk under the car and in the wheel wells, not the Dynamat type sound deadener inside under the carpet. I could not find any allowance in the rules for removing the carpet padding or interior sound deadener.

Since the stuff under the car is basically a heavy tar-grease stuff, I think it is possible to remove some of it with "regular cleaning and maintanence" of the car. So if it happened to all get washed off when you went through the car wash, I don't see how the rules can force you to reapply it. As I said, I will have to look into the specific rulings further. Great point. Thanks!
