Production and dashboards

[Evil Tweety]

So one page (under the main Production heading) says "A stock or full width dashboard is mandatory."  Then under /PRO, it says "The following items shall be retained in the stock location: . . . . dashboard, . . . "

So the part that says "A stock OR . . . " sounds to me like you can put in a different dash - am I correct?  And if so, just how far can this be taken provided it's full width?  (I'd like to put something aluminum in to give me more room to work in . . . )
Thanks!

I asked the same question a while back and my understanding is that you do not need to retain "the stock dash", or even a stock appearing clone of the original dash board, but you must have a suitable full width dash board with the required gauges.

Basis for the rule, as I understand it was folks were showing up to race with skeleton dash boards consisting of a couple gauges hung on ratty brackets and a birds nest of cobbled up wiring.

I may be mistaken but that is what I took away from the thread/discussion, although no one phrased it that specifically.
