Once again we will be running the Most Wanted Fine Art Class MWFA at the Kane County Fair on Sunday July 20th. Here are the rules below….

All vehicles must be stripped off all plastic, glass, headlights, taillights and anything else that could fall of onto the track during the show.
All vehicles must remain stock, ABSOLUTELY NO WELDING ANYWHERE.
Bumpers must remain stock, do not alter bumper in anyway. Factory bumper shocks must remain in factory location. You may remove rear bumpers and shocks. There is no welding to be done on bumpers.
Batteries may be left in stock location and spray foam may be added around battery. You may also move battery to passenger floor or seat. Please make sure battery is not moving.
If factory gas tank is in front of axle you may leave it there. If it’s behind the axel, you must move it to the rear seat area. Factory tanks may be moved inside but completely secured. After market tanks may be used.
