Quote: Waynes Transmission? Seems like I was there but I have no idea what was wrong with Waynes transmission.
He was running a TH350,IIRC, which everyone knows isn't installed behind alum head Chevy Rat motors. Who cares, it was legal then as it is now. No different than a C4 behind a 429 Ford or a 904 in a T/A Mopar.

That's what screwed ME up first time I started to follow F.A.S.T. I thought it was exactly as stated- FACTORY APPEARING. I then was told certain things were allowed, so I went rule reading, and sure enough, if the acronym is taken as "the exact term" then people don't understand the class, IMO anyways. Things CAN be tweaked, things that don't APPEAR factory stock can be allowed, and alterations can be made.

As far as guys commenting on F.A.S.T. cars that haven't been there.... I wonder if the same applies to all the threads? I never want to see YOU comment on a band like the Beatles, you were never in the Beatles!!!
There is interest on the west coast too, but you eastern guys are hogging the F.A.S.T. stuff all to yourselves!!!!
Crazy Seems like you have a beef with FAST care to let us in on it?
No beef whatsoever. I don't see where you get that- I'm just pointing out to many repliers that they sometimes get caught up in what I got caught up in- the acronym. The acronym isn't the be all end all in this venue, and those who think Factory Appearing Stock Tires is EXACTLY that...? Well they are mistaken. I went and read the rules after I mistook the acronym for being the exact description of the cars, and found out it is NOT an exact description at all. These guys have a few areas written into their rules which can allow deviances from factory appearing, not JUST transmissions, not JUST exhaust, but many areas.
I found out the rules by researching. Now I think I understand F.A.S.T. much better. If you think that's a "beef"...? Well
I like watching and following the cars, but I'm on the west coast of nothingness over here.... I don't care about brand when it comes to the F.A.S.T. cars, I like watching them all. Cool stuff if ya ask me, and lots of characters too! (Where's that Wayne?!?!)
