Congrats Eric!

Don't go all PC now in what you post on the other site

Sure is taking awhile to issue something on the camber plate differences of opinion. I'd have to guess someone has a false concern about safety and can't seem to get over it so things are progressing slowly. They've been "looking into it" since at least 12/31.

The last time I had a special ruling it was done in under a week. Greg called removing the 5th/6th port sleeves/actuators/rods and wiring the VDI open as "porting" of the intake manifold and a points hit. I said no way. A few email arguments later and in under a week the tech update was issued specifically allowing it as no points.

If all goes as planned I hope to have my TII out in ST this year... is NorCal NASA licensing still a graduate program through HPDE4/TT ?

Trust me. I'm anything but PC. He said it should issued soon, at least my last communication with him. I'm waiting on a ruling myself. I may or may not seem weld the sub frames pending the outcome. FYI- That is a no point mod. I have confirmed it

Yes or you can get a provisional if you have a SCCA or equal license.
