Chris, The stuck at the side of the track with the nose pointed at the guard rail or gravel trap would be the only time I think that the symbol would be a good idea. Other wise I never had to back up while forming up on the grid. Don't go giving SCCA ideas about more rules.
I think that hand signals would be adequate for such situations. I have a copy of the 1985 Sports Car and Formula Specifications and it is only 65 pages long. Apparently the GCR was a separate book. There was a claiming rule then, if you had a piece of crap that could barley get out of it's own way, and wanted a nice fast car, $6,870.00 would get you the other guys car. Thank God that silliness has passed.
