Yes that is all that they checked was the front. You are suppost to roll the car through. I don't know why the were not but I couldn't get my front through for a while.................. :o

Scott, do you remember?

I'm sure they are using the same gauge they used when I went to the Nationals (2006 & 2007).  That one was high enough to clear the roof.  I don't see anything as to a rule for the height of the car, but I assumed your roof needed to clear the hoop, so that might not be a requirement.  Your rear wheels will need to clear the gauge too.  I don't know if they checked that at tech (since I was too far back to make it to tech  ;D )

I didn't mean I thought the roof needed to clear, but the rule says (checked it today in the 09 rule book) that the car must pass through a 60" opening front and back.  <--not quoted but paraphrased.  So I thought the gauge had to clear the roof in order for that to be checked.

Just push harder it will fit!!!  Well if you changed the car to fit, I would keep it that way.  You were really running well there.
