Title: CM Rule Cleanup/Simplify
Class: CM
Request:
Cleanup/Simplify the SCCA National Solo Rules Appendix A MODIFIED CLASS C (CM) rules as outlined below.
~ Remove the following from paragraph A:
“Within the limitations of the GCR, additional frame bracing, suspension and steering changes, relocation of ancillary components (radiators, batteries, etc.), and their associated mounting brackets is permitted. Nothing in these rules is to be construed as overruling any GCR construction requirements or limitations except for those safety items which the Solo® Rules do not require. The purpose of these rules is to maintain the value of these cars for Club Racing and therefore their market value, and to prevent special Solo®-only Formula F vehicles.”
Given that CM specifically calls out that Formula F must be GCR-compliant, the above wording is verbose and unnecessary.
~ Remove the following section (3):
“3. Only cars produced by the following manufacturers are eligible for FF in this class: ADF, Alexis, Anson, Caldwell, Citation, Crossle, Du lon, Eagle, Elden, Forsgrini, Gemini, Hawke, Konig-Heath, LeGrand, Lola, Lotus, March, Merlyn, Mondiale, Piper, PRS, Reynard, Royale, Stohr, Swift, Tiga, Titan, Van Diemen, Winkleman, and Zink. The SEB may add to this list at any time, effective upon notification of the membership.”
That is, ALL GCR-compliant Formula F should be eligible for CM; there is no need keep and/or maintain the above listing.
Thank you for your consideration.
