-
All cars must be inspected by the tech crew and if passing all rules will receive
a safety sticker which must be placed on the top of the driver's side front windshield
post. Those not meeting safety rules will be given a list of items to be completed
by the next race day. If safety items are not complete and are deemed to be serious
by the tech crew, the car will not be allowed on the track until they are fixed.
-
Cars without safety stickers must be in the pits at least one hour prior to time
trials so that the car can be inspected. It is up to the driver of the car to
make sure his/her car has been inspected.
-
Safety stickers may be revoked upon inspection of the car at any time during the
race season.
-
All cars must comply with the specifications as written with regards to construction.
-
Any car involved in an accident must be checked by the tech crew before it will
be allowed back on the track. It is up to the driver to make sure the car has
been checked.
-
Brake checks will be performed randomly throughout the race season.
-
The tech crew has final authority in regards to car construction.
-
No brazing allowed on any structural part of car (ie roof must be welded and not
brazed on). These rules are designed with every good intention, however, during
the race season there may be times when minor alterations or clarifications to
the rules may be necessary for technical or safety reasons.
