Lee, I doubt seriously that scca is going to approve aluminum axles for solo only. SCCA wants to keep the road race and solo rules the same in most, if not all aspects. The idea is that the same car can be used in both types of competition, with nothing more that a couple of simple adjustments (tire pressure, ride heighth, camber,etc). You can petition all you want, but it wont get approved. IMHO Bill Schmidt 88 RD Kawi
>>> Lee Tilton <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> 04/12/07 6:50 PM >>> I know that the GCR specifies steel axles for F500. But why? I can see for road racing the possibility of bending an axle from getting bumped. But for Solo I can't see a viable reason other than weight, and I would think the Rotax cars would welcome the reduction. Is it worth petitioning the CRB to get a waiver for Solo only? Ooops, I guess my shut-up pill wore off. :) Lee ________________________________ FormulaCar Magazine - A Proud Supporter of Formula 500 The Official Publication of Junior Formula Car Racing Subscribe Today! www.formulacarmag.com or 519-624-2003 _________________________________ _______________________________________________ F500 mailing list - [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe or change options please visit: http://f500.org/mailman/listinfo/f500 *** Please, DO NOT send unsubscribe requests to the mailing list! ***
