quote:2-5 ... · Competitors who qualify for the World Finals must move up into either the Super Street or Extreme Divisions the following season. Once a competitor has moved up, they may no longer compete in the Street Division.
A rose is still a rose even if you call it a carnation.
Transfering ownership to "team x" and competing as "team x" doesn't mean that you aren't you and the car isn't yours. In real-estate law, that's called a "flip" and is illegal because it's fraud. Not saying you're wanting to commit fraud, but it would be an abuse of the rules and a blatant way around them as written.
Now, if it were a new vehicle entirely, and you weren't the primary or only member of "team x", and the majority of member of "team x" aren't former world finals competitors - then it could possibly be allowable.
I mailed Wayne to see if he'll make a more clear ruling, but this is my interpretation, based on all the intent discussions and what's in the rules.
