All of the discussion of the GCR and FCS has prompted me to spend some time
reading. I found the GCR interesting but the plot was difficult to follow.
:-)
Anyway, I ran across 17.4.2 in the GCR and it appears to me that we may be
required to add a fuel acquisition port on any vehicle governed by the GCR.
This would include BM, CM, and FM. Probably prepared also but I have
given up trying to follow prepared rules.
I plan to ask the SEB to add this to the exceptions under Solo II rule 16.3
for next year since BM uses last years GCR. I think that requiring BM
vehicles to add this port in 2002 increases costs, adds complexity, serves
no purpose, and would be really dumb! (If the SEB elects not to add this
exception, I would probably ignore it anyway since disconnecting a fuel
line MAY be considered acceptable. :-)
My question for the CM group is if you want me to add CM to my letter since
it already effects your class.
Yours for the sport.
