Not sure what the laws are in your area, but do not know why it would be illegal. If anyone knows this if it is, this would be something I would like to know as well. Cant see why allowing the motor to run cooler would be illegal. i.e. allowing the coolant to run longer in the engine.

I found nothing in the STX rules regarding changing the thermostat.
There is a rule allowing it in the Stock classes (13.10.I). Strict
interpretation of the rules would indicate that because it does not
say it is allowed in STX, that it is therefore not allowed. You
should probably go to the SCCA site and either research it or ask.
