That's a much better approach than most newcomers take. The rulebook is cheap,
and everyone who autocrosses should have one. Have you entered an event yet?

Is this someone in your class? What is the modification? There are folks on
this list who could help with your question.

Ask an experienced competitor. Steve Hoelscher lives in the Huntsville area,
and he attends events there on a regular basis. He might be willing to share
his thoughts.
If, after further investigation, you still believe the modification is illegal
(AND if the competitor is in your class; otherwise, why bother?), I suggest you
invite the competitor to have a conference with yourself and the folks who've
provided advice re: the mod's illegality. If he still won't change the car,
wait until a major event (Divisional, National Tour) and protest him.
