proposal that is fair.
Production cars as recognized in DM/EM running in BM as
sports racers must have the tires as viewed from above at least
= covered. Cycle fenders may be used to comply with a sports
racer classification.
F. Aerodynamic restrictions for Formula Atlantic (all open wheel in
BM) shall follow the current GCR, no additional Solo wing limitations.
G. Minimum weights for FSCCCA and SRSCCA, prepared as specified
by the GCR (lbs):
FSCCA: 1200
SRSCCA: 1200
H. Formula S is a special and relegated to AMOD -
All vehicles competing must be from GCR national classes , must be as close
to homologated as possible and cannot change wheel base or track more that 1.5
inches from the original design of the vehicle as homologated to meet the
minimum wheel base / track requirement (outside normal wide/narrow track
construction varients). Vehicles previously running under water cooled VW
formula super VEE or old formula B cars are allowed to bring their vehicle up
to current atlantic maximums as well as professional class preparation . Home
builts, must declare the rules set by which they are building the vehicle to
and this establishes the baseline wheel base as well as construction lineage
to which the appropriate weight shall be applied . This rule allows
homologated and competitive cars from all years to be equalized across the
class origins.
Cars that are derivatives of previously homologated vehicles, (regardless of
origin) and have wheel bases shorter than 84 inches non inclusive shall have
weights adjusted by 150 pounds added.
Since all GCR classes allow a mix of powerplant options , vehicles with
automotive derived powerplants and transmissions shall have no weight penalty
and shall follow the above weight table . Vehicles utilizing non automotive
derived powerplants due to the huge money invested each year by multinational
corporations to increase power, decrease weight and the huge aftermarket
performance modifications available at low cost present an advantage that the
average competator cannot compete against without the same utilization ,
This rule's intent is to ensure that GCR FIA defined classes currently ,at
significant disadvantage if maintained at the required construction and
transmission for club competitiveness ,can become equalized . The vehicles
powered by non automotive derived power plants and not described above shall
have 110 pounds added to the base weight plus any adder required by wheel
base . This rule allows homologated and competitive cars from all years to be
equalized across the class origins. Modifications as referred to above are
defined as follows changes to , , air box , factory computer with programming
changes , after market computer , injectors,, throttle bodies ,
carburetores , porting, compression , cams, fuel injection , piggy back
computers, non factory pistons, piston rings, internal gears, cranks ,
bearings connecting rods . Changes to rocker arm ratio in applications with
rocker followers, Non factory castings or machined parts on
any part making up the long block of the engine except to provide dry sump
availability and no other advantage or modification. What is not considered
modifications are aftermarket clutches, dry sump oiling, and headers as long
as no reprogramming of the computer ,, water pumps ,alternators , adjustable
cam sprockets
