Issue no 2

Fly wheels

It has come to our attention recently that you

have been able to buy a so called AMCA

flywheel on e-bay. These are not a approved

item and are therefore illegal to use.

Please be aware that you can be asked to

remove your flywheel at any time and have it

weighed.

Brakes

As some of you maybe aware we have been

looking at introducing a willwood brake

calliper that can be used. We will be trialing

it over the coming season and then making a

decsision from there.

Until this is done the ruling on brakes

remains the same as detailed in section 10 of

the specification book.

Fuel Protection Bars

After some discussion we have decided to

alter the fuel tank measurement that is

stated in rule 12.4 from 250mm to 330mm.

It has also been decided that after seeing

some of the fuel protection bars that a

centre brace must now be installed in the

middle of the protection bar as per

drawing.

It is compulsory to have this bar in for the

commencement of the 2014/15 Season.

Side Nerf Bars

A reminder that all cars are to run side nerf

bars as per rule 2.6 in the Specie Book.

Tyres

A reminder that with tyres, you are NOT

allowed to groove, buff or use any type of

tyre softener on them.

Safety Gear

Please take time to check all of your safety

gear during the off season. Remember that

seat belts only have a 2 year use.

Also check your helmets as if they are a

snell 2005 helmet, it will need to be

replaced at the end of next year.
