"Unprepared" refers to car classing. As in street prepared or prepared
catagory vs. stock category. In this instance a car running in a stock
category class is an "unprepared" car.
I have to strongly disagree with that statement, Steve. I don't recall Stock
category cars being referred to as "unprepared cars" anywhere else in the
rulebook, although I certainly could be mistaken. We have preparation rules
for Stock category cars, and people frequently refer to whether a Stock car
is
"prepared" to the limit of the rules or not.
Surely "unprepared cars" in the context of this rule must refer to a daily
driver
car with stock suspension and tires showing up at an event (presumably, again
in the context of the rule, with a less experienced driver), not to a Stock
class
car with the allowed suspension mods and R-compound tires?
Not trying to be the language police here, but this would seem to be
extremely
important since it would appear that the PC's decision turned on the meaning
of
that word "unprepared".
