Hey guys,
I know most have seen this in the email list, but thought I should put it here as well. I made a typo in the email - the connecting rod section is actually 6.14.e.i.
There have been a few changes in the SCCA regs for FC. I've highlighted the differences here. The changes from the regs we ran this year are in bold. It is my feeling that we should try to stay reasonably close to aligned with the SCCA, since that is where alot of the cars that are here are from, and I know a few people would like to do some SCCA racing as well. As such, I think that these should be brought up at the WCMA AGM. If we, the competitors, can agree to (or not to) include them, it would make the Race Directors job much easier.
If you know of other differences, please let us know. Comments/discussion?
Gary
