I guess some of it is not required by the Solo rules, but I would think it
would have to have started life as a recognized ASR.
Gotta find that rulebook when I get home! :) >>
So, you're thinking all that would be caught in tech? Or that Mike Lella
woul;d file a protest? :-) Deformable crash structures have not always been
required in Formula or Sports Racing Cars and a lot of cars have been
grandfathered into Solo 2. Homolgation was never required in ASR, you could
build whatever you wanted, belts are surely provided in a Panoz (since Solo 2
only requires a lap belt), the killswitch is right there next to the steering
wheel with the ign. key hanging out of it, and the rollcage is, uh, well,
hidden up there somewhere...
What the Hell, OSP sounds better, anyway.
