Subject: 1972 SCCA PCS for Spridgets

One of the items I have wanted to address ever since the Sprite Midget Race=
 Series was started 8 years ago was an understanding of what regulations we=
 were under within VSCDA Group 2 and also understand other organizations re=
gulations as it relates to our favorite race car.  Part of that goal was to=
 get a copy of 1972 SCCA Regulations that VSCDA's General Competition Rules=
 Technical Requirements (revised 1/2018) states as their guideline.  I have=
 gleaned from VSCDA's General Competition Rules Technical Requirements (1-4=

ished as it's baseline for our cars.  I am hoping to also be able to copy 1=

</div>
<div>One of the items I have wanted to address ever since the Sprite Midget=
 Race Series was started 8 years ago was an understanding of what regulatio=
ns we were under within VSCDA Group 2 and also understand other organizatio=
ns regulations as it relates to
 our favorite race car.&nbsp; Part of that goal was to get a copy of 1972 S=
CCA Regulations that VSCDA's General Competition Rules Technical Requiremen=
ts (revised 1/2018) states as their guideline.&nbsp; I have gleaned from VS=
CDA's General Competition Rules Technical
 Requirements (1-4) and have highlighted below.&nbsp; I would encourage eve=
ryone to be more familiar with this document found on the VSCDA Website htt=
ps://www.vscda.org/vscda-general-competition-rules :</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>1 *&nbsp; Cars must be presented in a neat and finished condition. Car=
s shall be prepared according to relevant SCCA or FIA General Competition R=
ules (GCR=92s) in effect up to 5 years after the date of the car=92s manufa=
cture, but no later than December 31, 1972,
 except for Groups 5 &amp; 7. Modifications beyond the era of a car=92s pro=
duction, made for other than safety reasons, may result in reclassification=
 of Group.&nbsp;</div>

<div>2 *&nbsp;Supplemental Rules and Regulations for =93Race Groups and Spe=
cific Cars=94: 1. Race Groups 2 and 8 (Supplemental Rules) VSCDA has two ty=
pes of preparation; PeriodsSCCAPreparation andModPreparation. Cars which ar=

 VMC organizations are usually accommodated in one of the VSCDA Mod Classes=
 VSCDA also has provisions which allows some cars to be prepared to =93othe=

e the minimum race weight for cars in
 Groups 2 and 8 look up the spec. weight in the table =93GCR Car Specificat=
