greatwhite Posted September 22, 2020 Report Share Posted September 22, 2020 I second this. I am eagerly waiting for the 2021 rules to see what kind of tube front end, aka strut tower bar, can be built. 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snake Posted September 24, 2020 Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 Patience everyone. The guys at Riley are working as fast as they can writing the 2021 rulebook so they can turn it over to the series for publication. 1 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little sneak peak at our new strut brace. It starts at the back of the car for safety and driver comfort.......... 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators E. Tyler Pedersen Posted September 24, 2020 Administrators Report Share Posted September 24, 2020 Chris Huggins, our new Tech Writer, is combing through the rulebook to make sure it is technically written. He has done a lot of work in a short time. I have not seen a draft copy yet, but should see one soon so the BOD can look over it and approve or make suggestions for changes. Please be patient. I also know that the BOD is having discussions on VPIs that were recommended by TAC. 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was a little impatient to see the new rules, but if Chris is doing a proper evaluation of the wording, then it's likely worth the wait. That's a big undertaking, but an important one. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We brought Chris on as the technical writer (approved by the BOD and volunteer position) as he has awesome skills and we wanted to use his talents as well within ChampCar. I believe Chris's technical skills will make the BCCR better. We did announce this at the BOD meeting last month. Again I will apologize on behalf of the organization on delaying this BCCR release, but I know it will be good with Chris on board. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bill still "owns" the book as the media guy, I just get a shot at review before it gets sent to the BOD for their approval. I've been doing some house (roof repair) work this week, but I will get my current review done this weekend at the latest. I believe we are on round 5 so far. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Either way after reading all of last few years of petitions, I trust "the book" is in safe hands. Rome wasn't built in a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snorman Posted September 25, 2020 Report Share Posted September 25, 2020 Allay my concerns that the BCCR isn't being "technically written" to manipulate the definition/interpretation/outcome of provisions which have previously been defined/interpreted/finalized. Because I have a real concern that myriad items will be reinterpreted as a result of this process. In many cases, it only takes a word or two.

Only thing that can do that effectively is you seeing the final product. My direction from the CEO and BOD is that I am not to change the intent of anything without approval. Which makes perfect sense. 3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You need to stay off the forums, let your roof leak and finish that rule book. J/K thanks for all your doing. You'll be on the BOD next year hopefully. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turbogrill Posted September 26, 2020 Report Share Posted September 26, 2020 There was something about non adjustable shocks being 0pts? Or was this just that the 2x is removed? So a height adjustable shocks is still 10pts? But you can buy one for $20 or $2000 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or the other option is to wait for the BCCR to come out. Anything else isn't worth listening to , reading, or commenting on as its either hearsay or just banter used to rile up a bunch of people witch is toxic.

I started a thread on this the evening of the BOD meeting. The language in the points I bulleted was exactly what was stated, but we should wait until this is final.
