Minimum weight display
- Thread starter Continuum
- Start date
Is this applicable in STL as well ?
Any IT-compliant car (even ITR) can compete in STU.
Any IT-compliant car 2L displacement and less can compete in STL.
In either case, you must completely conform to the IT regs, including weight, in which case you must display your IT weight (though you must also display the STU or STL class.) However, if you deviate in any way* from the IT regs, you must completely conform to the STU/L regs, in which case you'll display your STU/L weight.
GA
* A good example: any SM car can also compete in STL. However, we're getting rumors that some 1.8L SMs think it's OK to pull their restrictor plate and still compete in STL as an SM. That is incorrect; to meet the regs to compete in STL as an SM, they must "completely conform...to Spec Miata class specifications". If they happen to otherwise meet the STL specs they're fine, but many do not meet the 5" ride height requirement and many of the allowed SM head mods do not strictly meet the STL regs (as they do not in ITA/S).

Sorry Ben,
I've got a wire-harness that needs triming, and my concerns were addressed that:
a ) were all reading the same rule
b ) not all of us have acres of sheet metal next to our class designation
Finally, I do have to say I appreicate the job that Chuck, Peggy, John, Ken, and Kevin do at Cal-Club Tech
I can go to a shop and pay money for an anual, or I can get it done at Tech for free. As I'm a racer on a budget I go with Tech every time, and truely appreciate their effort.

I think if you go to any of the shops on the Cal Club list a renewal annual is free. At least I don't charge for a renewal and I've done a couple dozen or so over the years (a burger from In-n-Out across the street is appreciated 
). I will charge $40 an hour (half my shop rate) for a new car inspection.

No, Cal Club Tech does not charge competitors for stuff (except some stickers). My company, BetaMotorsports will charge an hourly fee for a new vehicle tech inspection if a competitor brings the car to my shop. I don't charge for a annual renewal. My shop is one of the approved tech shops for Cal Club.
