[ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 05/ 2/06 4:16pm Author: David Hubbard Subject:  *****Rules Clarification*****The legality of "split" dominators was brought to my attention today by a racer building a new motor for TPSA. While it hasn't been addressed in black and white, the intent of the rule was to allow a maximum of two standard bodied carbs on a tunnel ram. Our rules currently state "two carbs add 50#'s". This should be more worded more specifically to avoid gray areas and questions that could arise. Therefore, the line "limited to a maximum of two, 4-barrel American automotive production carbs" will be added to the rules. Also, the line "No "splits", "inline" multi barrel carbs, slide valves or motorcycle style carbs permitted" will be added. I was also asked about the transmission rule so a line will be added to further clarify that rule. "Any three speed (automatic) transmission adds 50#'s". I don't believe any team currently running TPSA will be impacted by these clarifications and the rules page will be updated ASAP. Our objective is to keep the rules as few, simple, clear, and direct as possible. However, ever changing technology dictates that issues will need to be addressed in order to retain the original intent and spirit of the rules. If you have any questions or comments please contact me, Rick, or Donald. [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
