To all Mini-Baja Team Members:


A lot of discussion has been going on in regards to the 5" minimum bend
radius and how this will cause teams problems and increase cost to meet
this requirement.  It has been decided that the rule is not feasible for
teams to meet, instead the rule will be "Bent tube construction must not
show any signs of stress tear or 
buckling."  

Please be aware that if your roll cage shows any problems in the bend
area your team will need to fix it before you are allowed to compete.


Thank you and sorry for the confusion
