I mean, I'm sure that's a crazy setup, but doesn't really meet the intent of a stick, does it?

Most "stick shift" classes specify a clutch assisted H-pattern transmission. I can see how your car doesn't fit a standard definition of a stick car from some perspectives. I would agree, a "stick" car, to me, has an H pattern trans.

I don't think there is any sort of sanctioning body for records like the one you're chasing, so if you want to claim it is a stick car, all the power to you. I would be prepared for arguments like you're getting here.

My challenge would be to show me a "stick shift" class where your car fits the rules with regards to transmission. All the ones I know of specify H-pattern. I'm not aware of one that doesn't - but I'd be interested to be shown otherwise.

Now see, that's an excellent argument to the challenge that your car is not stick shift. I don't really have a dog in the fight, I can see both sides of it. I just think what you're doing is cool, and as another stick shift Junkie I'm always happy to see guys pushing cars with clutches faster and faster. Doing it with the stock bottom end is more impressive yet!

Raced the car with the factory TREMEC until I broke it 2 times back to back
Put a Jerico in it and H pattern and broke it 2 times. Went to the liberty this year.
