Supplemental Regulations and Class List
Competition Group Eight
(updated 3/25/98)
1. Eligibility: Recognized series produced sports cars and sedans in
production prior to 1972. Other cars by invitation. 

2. Background and philosophy: Group Eight consists mainly of medium
displacement sportscars ans sedans. Cars are expected to be prepared to the
SCCA standards that were in effect at the end of the production period of the
make and model. Similar models prepared to the FIA  or other regulations are
included, but may be reclassified accordingly. Group Eight classes generally
follow the SCCA classes of 1972, with some adjustments for cars that were
either not recognized by the SCCA or have specifications that significantly
change their relative performance. Group Eight also includes early B-
production cars and certain limited production GT’s with improved
specifications.

3. Modifications: As listed in the SVRA General Rules and Regulations, the
SVRA Supplemental Rules for the make and model, and any period rules that are
appropriate. Cars marked with [ * ] have preparation guidelines published by
SVRA to help define the period standards. All competitors are expected to
obtain and understand these regulations.

4. Approved tires: See separate Group Eight tire list. The notations (a) (b)
(c).etc. refer to the tire category on the approved tire list.
