It's been proposed in the latest Fastrack that the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN) requirement rule be deleted. What say you?

The main defense of the VIN rule centers on this thought:
It would appear to me that we now have no formal method of discerning one vehicle from another...[/b]
You're assuming the VIN provides an easy method of discerning the vehicle now.

We police it as we always do: inspecting the equipment appropriate for the car/class. If it's an ITA Integra, we make sure that they don't have a GS-R engine and trans in there, just as we do now. The VIN requirement doesn't change that, nor does it currently stop people who want to from cheating.

We have well-vetted this discussion in the past, and there are two distinct camps on this. Here's but a few.

I support the ditching the the VIN rule, for all the reasons I've described in these prior topics. What say you? - GA
