SCCA SP 15. STREET PREPARED CATEGORY
Cars running in Street Prepared Category must have been series produced with normal road touring equipment, capable of being licensed for normal road use in the United States
How many current SP cars here could meet State of CA smog rules? Legally they would have to be registered in CA since most owners live in CA....
BTW, when did the supps for CSM change from this in 2003: CALIFORNIA STREET MODIFIED (CSM)
