I was around when they actually improved Improved Touring! (and now I'm trying not to mess it up!)
That one is copy-pasted from Rallycross rules. Wouldn't surprise me if Solo ST was the template.

Ah yes, RallyCross. I didn't think it was quite a Solo style.
If the class from which this is pulled is intended to be a street class, then the retention of operational emissions equipment is understandable. Also, given RallyCross' roots in Rally, remember that Rally cars must be street-legal (inspected and registered) for purposes of transits. I'm not certain if that philosophy has held over into RallyCross, but it wouldn't surprise me if it did...

1. I can replace the exhaust from the head back. Materials are "any material". I pick a straight pipe with a small muffler.
Next up, I have to pay attention to a, b and c.
a. Exit behind the driver. No problem.
b. Comply with noise. No problem.
c.......
1. Any high flow cat is allowed.
2. Multiple cats may be replaced by a single cat, and the location of that single cat is specified.
3. If it didn't come with one, I don't have to have one.
Bolding is mine. I don't see anything in there that says I need to keep a cat. I'm ALLOWED to have a high-flow cat - no requirements there. I'm ALLOWED to replace two factory cats with one, and if I do that I'm restricted on its location. Only requirement is location. If the car didn't come with one, I don't need to add one. Again, no requirements.
It may very well be the intent that a cat is required, but I would have NO problem showing up with no cat and pointing at this rule in support of that.

Oh, and to add - this is RallyCross "Prepared" class.
