Okay, here's exactly what it says:Jamie wrote:R1 says, "Any streetable car on race tires...." Need to fix that if you want to push non-street legal stuff into R1. And strictly speaking, we've allowed those before (i.e., Jay Stannard's Formula Ford).
"This is our top class. Any streetable car on race tires can compete here regardless of modifications as long as it meets safety requirements."
I propose changing it to read as follows:
This is our top class. Any vehicle on race tires or that is otherwise ineligible for any other class may compete here as long as it meets the following requirements:
- Must meet all safety requirements
- Must meet exhaust sound limitations
- Must have electric start from the driver's seat
- Must have four wheels, minimum 10" diameter, with each supported by springs
- If less than two seats, basic dimensions (wheelbase, weight, etc) must meet that of an SCCA A Modified, B Modified, C Modified or F Modified class car.
- If open-wheel, bicycle fendered, or without a windshield, occupants must wear a full-face helmet.
That should cover most of the bases without getting too deep. (note that it closes that loophole that allows anybody to just compete in R1 because they want to... you have to be ineligible for another class)
Anybody think otherwise?
