I'm not competing but this was my favorite part of the rule set

[Chuck Baader]

Item III...IT cars will also run, so rule should read "TT or IT prepared cars"

Item III...IT cars will also run, so rule should read "TT or IT prepared cars"

The way it's written, all GCR classes are eligible. Are you requesting language to specifically include IT classes, or exclude other classes?

[Chuck Baader]

Casey, if you want to include all GCR classes, drop the "TT" and just say GCR. The IT and TT rulesets are different, as are the production, etc.

[rodhx]

Do we need to reference the "this is supposed to be fun" clause already?

[Chuck Baader]

That would be covered under: Grievances, I

[bimmertech]

Chuck, I updated the rules to hopefully make it more clear.

If anyone thinks we need to specifically exclude a TT or club race class we can add an exclusions list. My intent is to keep it simple and include anyone who is interested.

[Chuck Baader]

Works for me...GCR covers all classes but there are supplemental rule books for some classes.

[bimmertech]

The GCR covers all club race classes. All GCR classes are allowed and referenced by the TT rule book, but there are additional TT classes not recognized by the GCR. Hence, I included verbiage for both.
