STX specifically allows larger than stock rotors. Therefore they have to allow the dust shields to be removed, or that rule would be impossible to implement. If someone wants to protest my missing dust shields, they can go for it, because I guarentee they'll lose.
The dust shields aren't even a big deal, since the added cooling from them being removed isn't really necessary at autoX speeds. I just don't want to have to take my friggen calipers back off to reinstall 'em.
Now here's where things get jinky... here's last year's wording:
Quote:
Brake rotors and calipers are unrestricted, but must attach to the original attachment points.

I wonder why they changed it.
