Dan, and others--
Your comment highlights my main point.  I and a lot of others don't  know.  We
go to the rule book and don't find clear answers to obvious questions.

I'm not a big fan of expanding the rule book with a bunch of rules to cover
every possible situation.  I much prefer the common sense way things are done
now.  But sometimes we need a little "due process".

There's a neat rule at the beginning of section 3.B about requesting
deviations to roll structures 45 days prior to the event.  I'd suggest
something like that with regard to licensing deviation requests.  I think most
requests could be initially answered with a form letter or a reference to a
page on the SCTA/BNI website.
Yes, this would add to the administrative workload for some of you guys.  But
driver licensing is a lot more important issue than the tilt of a grill shell
on a street roadster (Thanks for your help on that one , Dan).
