Keith,Tom & List

I asked at the meeting last Friday night about the rules change request form
being put on line and at this time they said no. The forms is available at
the inspection trailer or by requsting one from the SCTA/BNI office. Point
of interest, not one form was submitted this year during the lakes season or
at the meets on the salt( regarding traction control). The rule book will go
to print in about 10 days.
